# Muster vs Tavern Community

Muster's advantage is ratings volume (39 vs 3). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Muster sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Tavern Community sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $129.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Muster against 5.0 for Tavern Community. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Muster has 39 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
