Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Manor Matters Adventure Games at none against Seekers Notes's shown. Manor Matters Adventure Games also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Seekers Notes's advantage is review sentiment (59% vs 33%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Seekers Notes sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Manor Matters Adventure Games sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Manor Matters Adventure Games holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 95K and 217K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Seekers Notes's written reviews are positive against 33% of Manor Matters Adventure Games's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
