# Retrogaming Collection vs Retro Game Emulator

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Retrogaming Collection at 68% against Retro Game Emulator's 0%. Retrogaming Collection also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). Retro Game Emulator's advantage is rating (3.5 vs 2.0) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price, ratings volume, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Retrogaming Collection sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Retro Game Emulator asks for nothing beyond the download.

Retro Game Emulator holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 2.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Retrogaming Collection's written reviews are positive against 0% of Retro Game Emulator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
