Pokki is free but has an 'app store' where third party developers can make apps and games, it's optional to engage w it's app store. Pokki looks quite a bit different than a classic start menu (start8 / classic shell), its more 'animated looking'. I guess Pokki is trying a 'free' model and then trying to make money from some paid apps, vs Start8 which just charges $5-$10 up front. It's honestly been awhile since I tried Pokki so things may have changed, lately I've just been using Start8 and The Prompt.
