# Genesis vs Westeros Map

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Westeros Map at none against Genesis's 13. Genesis's advantage is ratings volume (281 vs 5) and review sentiment (58% vs 50%). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Genesis sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Westeros Map asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 3.9 for Genesis against 4.0 for Westeros Map. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Genesis has 281 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 58% of Genesis's written reviews are positive against 50% of Westeros Map's.
