# Pal legends vs Astra Squad

The clearest difference is rating: Astra Squad at 4.6 against Pal legends's 1.0. Astra Squad also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 1). Pal legends's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 16%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pal legends sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Astra Squad sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Astra Squad holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Astra Squad has 1.6K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Pal legends's written reviews are positive against 16% of Astra Squad's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Pal legends ships an update weekly, Astra Squad every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
