# DomiNations vs CodeCards

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CodeCards at none against DomiNations's 13. CodeCards also leads on ads (none vs shown). DomiNations's advantage is chart position (#154 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DomiNations sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. CodeCards asks for nothing beyond the download.
