# Dragon Games vs Mobile Run

The clearest difference is rating: Mobile Run at 4.5 against Dragon Games's 3.4. Mobile Run also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 33%) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 13 months). Dragon Games's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
