# Galactic Missile Defense vs Modern Command Mayhem TD

The clearest difference is rating: Modern Command Mayhem TD at 4.6 against Galactic Missile Defense's 2.0. Modern Command Mayhem TD also leads on ratings volume (2.4K vs 1) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). Galactic Missile Defense's advantage is review sentiment (83% vs 46%) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Galactic Missile Defense sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Modern Command Mayhem TD sells 41 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Modern Command Mayhem TD holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Modern Command Mayhem TD has 2.4K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Galactic Missile Defense's written reviews are positive against 46% of Modern Command Mayhem TD's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
