# Angry Birds 2 vs Pinatamasters

Pinatamasters also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Angry Birds 2's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (1.6M vs 71K).

Both are free to download. Angry Birds 2 sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and Pinatamasters sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Angry Birds 2 has 1.6M ratings behind it against 71K, so its average is the more settled of the two.
