# TC vs JAX DYNAMICS

TC's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (14 vs 3). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

TC costs $19.99 and JAX DYNAMICS $4.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

TC holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 14 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of TC's written reviews are positive against 100% of JAX DYNAMICS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
