Both are free to download. Bricksy sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and The Army sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
The Army holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Army has 4.4K ratings behind it against 271, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of Bricksy's written reviews are positive against 31% of The Army's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Bricksy ships an update every 5 days, The Army every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
