Advanced Space Flight is a realistic space simulator for interplanetary and interstellar travel. It is the only space simulator available that takes into account relativistic effects during interstellar flight. Besides simulating space flight this app can also be used as a planetarium, with all known planets shown in real scale with their accurate keplerian orbits. It can also be used as a star chart and exoplanet explorer, showing all solar systems with confirmed exoplanets within 50 light years from the Sun. This is the only app where you can get a sense of the true scale of the Universe, zooming out throught thousands of galaxies and galaxy clusters until you see the entire observable universe in your screen. Locations: - All Solar System planets plus 5 dwarf planets and 27 moons - All confirmed exoplanetary solar systems within 50 light years from the Sun, making a total of over 100+ exoplanets. - Over 50+ stars, including main sequence stars like the Sun, red dwarfs like TRAPPIST-1, white dwarfs like Sirius B, brown dwarfs like 54 Piscium B, etc. - Experience the full scale of the Universe: you can zoom out from a few meters to billions of light years, until you see the entire observable universe in your screen. Flight Modes: - Realistic Flight: Travel using optimized trajectories, calculated based on the orbital parameters of the origin and destination planets to minimize fuel usage. These are the kind of trajectories that would be used in a real space mission. - Free Flight: Take manual control of a spaceship in space, activating the engines as you see fit to achieve your goals. Spaceships: Advanced Space Flight features several spacecraft, based on present and future technology: - Space Shuttle (Chemical Rocket): Designed in 1968-1972 by NASA and North American Rockwell. It has been in service from 1981 to 2011, making it the most successful reusable spacecraft ever built. - Falcon Heavy (Chemical Rocket): Designed and manufactured by SpaceX, made its first flight in 2018. - Nuclear Ferry (Nuclear Thermal Rocket): Designed in 1964 by Ling-Temco-Vought Inc. - Lewis Ion Rocket (Ion Drive): Designed in a 1965 study by the Lewis Research Center. - Project Orion (Nuclear Pulse Propulsion): Designed in 1957-1961 by General Atomics. Some early prototypes were built before the project was abandoned after 1963. - Project Daedalus (Fusion Rocket): Designed in 1973-1978 by the British Interplanetary Society. - Antimatter Startship (Antimatter Rocket): First proposed in the early 1950s, the concept was further studied after advances in antimatter physics in the 80s and 90s. - Bussard Ramjet (Fusion Ramjet): First proposed in 1960 by Robert W. Bussard, design was improved in 1989 by Robert Zubrin and Dana Andrews. - IXS Enterprise (Alcubierre Warp Drive): Based on a concept design fom NASA designed in 2008 and popularized in 2015, it was the first serious attempt to design a superluminal spacecraft. Artificial Satellites: Several human-made satellites are present in the app: - Sputnik 1 - Hubble Space Telecope - Internation Space Station - Kepler Space Observatory - Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) - James Webb Space Telescope Effects: - Atmospheric light scattering effects, making atmospheres look realistic both from space and from the surface of planets. - Planetary clouds that move at different speed than the surface. - Clouds in tidal-locked planets form giant hurricanes, caused by the Coriolis force. - Stars with volumetric corona and lens flares. Star color determined by surface temperature. - Planetary rings with realistic light scattering and real-time shadows from the planet. - Realtivistic effects when travelling close to the speed of light: time dilation, length contraction and relativistic doppler effect.

FLY MILITARY AIRCRAFT AND PASSENGER AIRLINERS: "Turboprop Flight Simulator" is a 3D airplane simulator game, in which you pilot various types of modern turboprop aircraft, and also drive ground vehicles. THE AIRCRAFT: * C-400 tactical airlifter - inspired from the real-world Airbus A400M. * HC-400 coastguard search and rescue - variant of C-400. * MC-400 special operations - variant of C-400. * RL-42 regional airliner - inspired from the real-world ATR-42. * RL-72 regional airliner - inspired from the real-world ATR-72. * E-42 military early warning aircraft - derived from RL-42. * XV-40 concept tilt-wing VTOL cargo. * PV-40 private luxury VTOL - variant of XV-40. * MV-40 special operations VTOL - variant of XV-40. * PS-26 concept private seaplane. * MS-26 special operations seaplane - variant of PS-26. * C-130 military cargo - inspired from the legendary Lockheed C-130 Hercules. * HC-130 coastguard search and rescue - variant of C-130. * MC-130 special operations - variant of C-130. HAVE FUN: * Learn to fly with training missions (teaching the basics of flying, taxiing, takeoff and landing). * Complete various missions. * Explore the plane's interior in first-person (in most levels, and free-flight). * Interact with various items (doors, cargo ramp, strobes, main lights). * Drive ground vehicles. * Load, unload, and airdrop supplies and vehicles with the cargo planes. * Takeoff and land on improvised runways (and airports, for sure). * Fly without restrictions in free-flight mode, or create flight routes on the map. * Perform refueling on ground and mid-air refueling. * Use JATO/L (Jet Assisted Take-Off and Landing). * Fly in varied time-of-day, fog and wind conditions. OTHER FEATURES: * FREE airplane simulator game updated in 2025! * NO MANDATORY ADS! Only optional, rewarded ones in-between flights. * Good 3D graphics (with detailed cockpits for all the airplanes). * Realistic physics for flight simulation. * Complete pilot controls (including rudder, flaps, spoilers, thrust reversers, auto-brakes, and landing gear). * Multiple control options (including mixed tilt sensor & stick / yoke). * Multiple cameras (including cockpit cameras with captain and copilot positions). * Close to realistic engines' sounds (turbines and propellers noises recorded from real airplanes). * Partial and total aircraft destruction (clipping wing tips, full wings separation, tail separation, and main fuselage breakage). * Several islands with many airports. * Selection of measurement units for air speed, flying altitude, and distance (metric, aviation standard, and imperial).

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Turboprop Flight Simulator at Free against Advanced Space Flight's $4.99. Turboprop Flight Simulator also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (13K vs 40). Advanced Space Flight's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Turboprop Flight Simulator is free to download; Advanced Space Flight costs $4.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Turboprop Flight Simulator holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Turboprop Flight Simulator has 13K ratings behind it against 40, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 85% of Advanced Space Flight's written reviews are positive against 94% of Turboprop Flight Simulator's.
Advanced Space Flight ships an update every 4 months, Turboprop Flight Simulator every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
