# Super Monkey Dash vs Gnome Invaders

The clearest difference is rating: Super Monkey Dash at 5.0 against Gnome Invaders's 4.2. Super Monkey Dash also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Gnome Invaders's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 123 months) and ratings volume (21 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Super Monkey Dash sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Gnome Invaders sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Super Monkey Dash holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gnome Invaders has 21 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
