# Mr Jump vs Magic River

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mr Jump at 82% against Magic River's 33%. Mr Jump also leads on rating (4.4 vs 3.2) and ratings volume (4.2K vs 196). Magic River's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 13.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mr Jump sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Magic River sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
