# AltLife Sim! vs Real Deal Developer

The clearest difference is ads: Real Deal Developer at none against AltLife Sim!'s shown. Real Deal Developer also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 69%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). AltLife Sim!'s advantage is ratings volume (1.4K vs 2) and chart position (#57 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AltLife Sim! sells 16 one-off in-app purchases and Real Deal Developer sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Real Deal Developer holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AltLife Sim! has 1.4K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 69% of AltLife Sim!'s written reviews are positive against 100% of Real Deal Developer's.
