# Agar.io vs wormate.io

The clearest difference is rating: Agar.io at 4.5 against wormate.io's 4.0. Agar.io also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 2 months) and chart position (#170 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Agar.io sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days and wormate.io sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Agar.io holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Agar.io has 221K ratings behind it against 31K, so its average is the more settled of the two.
