# Bullet Boy vs PAKO Caravan

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Bullet Boy at 90% against PAKO Caravan's 60%. Bullet Boy also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (790 vs 67). PAKO Caravan's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bullet Boy sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and PAKO Caravan sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
