# Evolution vs Combat Elite

The clearest difference is rating: Evolution at 4.5 against Combat Elite's 3.7. Evolution also leads on ratings volume (321 vs 9). Combat Elite's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (80% vs 67%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Evolution sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Combat Elite sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Evolution holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Evolution has 321 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Evolution's written reviews are positive against 80% of Combat Elite's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
