# UnderGuild vs Beacon

The clearest difference is rating: Beacon at 5.0 against UnderGuild's 4.5. UnderGuild's advantage is ratings volume (79 vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. UnderGuild sells 19 one-off in-app purchases and Beacon sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Beacon holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UnderGuild has 79 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
