# Bounce vs Golf Odyssey

The clearest difference is rating: Golf Odyssey at 4.7 against Bounce's 4.1. Golf Odyssey also leads on ratings volume (4.4K vs 542). Bounce's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bounce sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Golf Odyssey sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
