# Sandbox Experiments vs Creative Ragdoll Sandbox

The clearest difference is rating: Sandbox Experiments at 4.7 against Creative Ragdoll Sandbox's 4.1. Sandbox Experiments also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). Creative Ragdoll Sandbox's advantage is review sentiment (78% vs 60%). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sandbox Experiments sells 18 one-off in-app purchases and Creative Ragdoll Sandbox sells 20 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Sandbox Experiments's written reviews are positive against 78% of Creative Ragdoll Sandbox's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
