# Nonogram vs Math Puzzle Games

The clearest difference is rating: Math Puzzle Games at 4.9 against Nonogram's 4.4. Math Puzzle Games also leads on ratings volume (261K vs 9.2K) and review sentiment (58% vs 41%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Nonogram sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Math Puzzle Games sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Math Puzzle Games holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math Puzzle Games has 261K ratings behind it against 9.2K, so its average is the more settled of the two.
