# Goat Evolution vs Cactus Evolution Clicker

Cactus Evolution Clicker also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 84%) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). Goat Evolution's advantage is ratings volume (9.5K vs 63). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Goat Evolution sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Cactus Evolution Clicker sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Goat Evolution against 4.7 for Cactus Evolution Clicker. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Goat Evolution has 9.5K ratings behind it against 63, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 84% of Goat Evolution's written reviews are positive against 100% of Cactus Evolution Clicker's.
