Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Brick Car 2(Full Version) at 4.3 against Trainz Simulator 3's 3.8. Brick Car 2(Full Version) also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 22) and price ($3.99 vs $7.99). Trainz Simulator 3's advantage is review sentiment (51% vs 25%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Brick Car 2(Full Version) holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Trainz Simulator 3 has 1.6K ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Trainz Simulator 3's written reviews are positive against 25% of Brick Car 2(Full Version)'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Trainz Simulator 3 ships an update fortnightly, Brick Car 2(Full Version) every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
