Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Bus Simulator 3D Big City at 4.5 against Driver Simulator OG's 4.0. Bus Simulator 3D Big City also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and update cadence (every 6 months vs every 14 months). Driver Simulator OG's advantage is ratings volume (188 vs 13) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Bus Simulator 3D Big City holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Driver Simulator OG has 188 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Bus Simulator 3D Big City's written reviews are positive against 62% of Driver Simulator OG's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Bus Simulator 3D Big City ships an update every 6 months, Driver Simulator OG every 14 months. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
