# Ship Simulator 2018 3D vs Pilot Simulator Plane Games

The clearest difference is rating: Pilot Simulator Plane Games at 4.0 against Ship Simulator 2018 3D's 2.9. Pilot Simulator Plane Games also leads on ratings volume (9.5K vs 13). Ship Simulator 2018 3D's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (25% vs 5%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ship Simulator 2018 3D sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Pilot Simulator Plane Games sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per 6 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Pilot Simulator Plane Games holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pilot Simulator Plane Games has 9.5K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Ship Simulator 2018 3D's written reviews are positive against 5% of Pilot Simulator Plane Games's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
