# Tiny Goalie vs Blocky Soccer

Tiny Goalie and Blocky Soccer both sit at 4.1 stars, but that hides the real split: 84% of Tiny Goalie's written reviews are positive against 33% of Blocky Soccer's. Tiny Goalie also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 9 months). Blocky Soccer's advantage is ratings volume (991 vs 54). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tiny Goalie sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and Blocky Soccer sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.1 for Tiny Goalie against 4.1 for Blocky Soccer. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Blocky Soccer has 991 ratings behind it against 54, so its average is the more settled of the two.
