# Numbed vs M.A.D. Cows

The clearest difference is price: Numbed at Free against M.A.D. Cows's $1.99. Numbed also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (40 vs 1). M.A.D. Cows's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). On review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Numbed is free to download; M.A.D. Cows costs $1.99 up front. Numbed sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. M.A.D. Cows asks for nothing beyond the download.

Numbed holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Numbed has 40 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Numbed's written reviews are positive against 100% of M.A.D. Cows's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
