# SUPERSTAR SMTOWN vs PineBlocks

The clearest difference is ads: PineBlocks at none against SUPERSTAR SMTOWN's shown. SUPERSTAR SMTOWN's advantage is chart position (#19 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SUPERSTAR SMTOWN sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and PineBlocks sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
