# Ball Run vs Dune!

The clearest difference is rating: Dune! at 4.5 against Ball Run's 3.4. Dune! also leads on ratings volume (545K vs 7) and chart position (#207 vs unranked). Ball Run's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 9) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dune! sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Ball Run asks for nothing beyond the download.

Dune! holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dune! has 545K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Ball Run's written reviews are positive against 28% of Dune!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
