# GoQuest vs Down to Zero

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Down to Zero at 100% against GoQuest's 68%. Down to Zero also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). GoQuest's advantage is ratings volume (573 vs 1) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GoQuest sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month and Down to Zero sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Down to Zero holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GoQuest has 573 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 68% of GoQuest's written reviews are positive against 100% of Down to Zero's.
