Space flight as it ought to be: no friction, no speed limit, no brakes! Space Station Racer Lite is the free Lite version of Space Station Racer, a unique racing game that uses realistic space flight physics. Race around three different race courses located on three imaginary space stations, using nothing but your powerful thrusters to accelerate, turn, and brake. (Space Station Racer, the full version of this App, contains 12 space stations from around the world.) Features: - realistic (Newtonian) space flight physics - three different race courses on fictitious space stations of the near future (12 race courses in the full version) - 12 different liveries for your racer Your racer has three large thrusters in the back, which you can rotate in different directions to accelerate, turn, or brake. When you turn on your thrusters, you will keep accelerating without ever reaching a maximum speed, because there is neither friction nor air resistance in space. And when you turn the thruster back off, you will not slow down, but keep going at undiminished speed forever. You can also turn your racer freely through 360° without any effect on your flight path, which allows you to direct the thrust wherever needed to obtain the optimal racing line. All this makes Space Station Racer a truly unique racing experience, unlike other futuristic racing games that use race car-like physics with friction and traction.
Five Squares

Five Squares. Keep them apart. Five Squares is a one-thumb arcade survival game. Colored squares with googly eyes bounce around a neon arena, and if any two collide, your run is over. That's the whole rule. Keeping it gets harder every minute.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Space Station Racer Lite at none against Five Squares's 1. Five Squares's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 8 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
