Easy to learn — hard to put down. THREE FREE GAMES A DAY Play three Classic or Daily Challenge games per UTC day on this device. Both modes share the same allowance. New games arrive at midnight UTC; the reset time is shown in your local time. Pausing and continuing never uses another game. BEAT THE CLOCK Classic starts with 18 seconds. Correct matches add time. Follow the reference ring when the pattern rotates, and beat your best. A FRESH DAILY CHALLENGE Everyone gets the same daily sequence of patterns. The challenge changes at midnight UTC. LEARN AND PRACTICE FREE Untimed Practice and the interactive guide are always free and never use a daily game. The guide lights up your next tap and helps when you make a mistake.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Drift City 3D at none against Grid's 1. Drift City 3D also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 12 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Grid's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
