## Reviews

### "LiveCode Pricing is a Mystery" — 2.0/5

> **Randall** | *28 May 2024* | Research | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's a message driven language. It is a copy of SuperCard.
> 
> **Cons**: Pricing. Outrageous and intractable. No pricing is listed on the LiveCode web site. You have to fill out a form and apply for a pricing quote\!?\!?\!
> 
> Pricing is outrageous. Pricing is not clearly advertised. Pricing is a mystery.
