# Shift Punk vs AlienFall.io

The clearest difference is update cadence: AlienFall.io at every 2 days against Shift Punk's weekly. AlienFall.io also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Shift Punk's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Shift Punk sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and AlienFall.io sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
