# DomiNations vs Shapion

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Shapion at 100% against DomiNations's 52%. Shapion also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). DomiNations's advantage is ratings volume (39K vs 1) and chart position (#123 vs unranked). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DomiNations sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Shapion asks for nothing beyond the download.

Shapion holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DomiNations has 39K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 52% of DomiNations's written reviews are positive against 100% of Shapion's.
