# FR3 vs Old School 3D

The clearest difference is ratings volume: FR3 at 235K against Old School 3D's 1K. FR3 also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and chart position (#41 vs unranked). Old School 3D's advantage is review sentiment (77% vs 55%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FR3 sells 18 one-off in-app purchases and Old School 3D sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

FR3 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FR3 has 235K ratings behind it against 1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of FR3's written reviews are positive against 77% of Old School 3D's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

FR3 ships an update every 3 weeks, Old School 3D every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
