Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Space Shuttle Agency at Free against Interplanetary III's $0.99. Space Shuttle Agency also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ratings volume (859 vs 23). Interplanetary III's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 27 months). On review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Interplanetary III holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Space Shuttle Agency has 859 ratings behind it against 23, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 39% of Space Shuttle Agency's written reviews are positive against 33% of Interplanetary III's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Space Shuttle Agency ships an update every 27 months, Interplanetary III every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
