# Medieval Battle Simulator vs Army Battle Simulator

The clearest difference is rating: Army Battle Simulator at 4.5 against Medieval Battle Simulator's 3.3. Army Battle Simulator also leads on review sentiment (73% vs 35%) and ratings volume (11K vs 271). Medieval Battle Simulator's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Medieval Battle Simulator sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Army Battle Simulator sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Army Battle Simulator holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Army Battle Simulator has 11K ratings behind it against 271, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 35% of Medieval Battle Simulator's written reviews are positive against 73% of Army Battle Simulator's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
