# Catch Fast vs Flight Simulator 2d

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Catch Fast at 100% against Flight Simulator 2d's 61%. Catch Fast also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Flight Simulator 2d's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 56 months) and ratings volume (3.7K vs 2). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Catch Fast sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Flight Simulator 2d sells 16 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Catch Fast holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flight Simulator 2d has 3.7K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Catch Fast's written reviews are positive against 61% of Flight Simulator 2d's.

Catch Fast ships an update every 56 months, Flight Simulator 2d every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 26, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
