# Pop Star vs Mega Max 3D

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pop Star at none against Mega Max 3D's 3. Pop Star also leads on ratings volume (946 vs 34). Mega Max 3D's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 84%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mega Max 3D sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Pop Star asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for Pop Star against 4.2 for Mega Max 3D.
