You are a solar-powered craft. The sun is your death timer. Hurtle towards the sunset at breakneck speed in a futile race against time. Delay the inevitable by catching speed boosts which reverse the setting sun - if only for a moment. Race The Sun: Daily Challenge Edition is inspired by arcade games of the past with a focus on high scores, short game sessions, and pure fun mingled with nerve-wracking tension. The rules are simple: don't crash, stay in the light, and don't slow down! This new edition of the game includes several new features including new alternate ships, colorful new trails, and a new "daily challenge" system that will test the skills of even the most experienced players.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Jailbreak! at none against RACE THE SUN CHALLENGE EDITION's shown. Jailbreak! also leads on update cadence (weekly vs monthly) and review sentiment (60% vs 51%). RACE THE SUN CHALLENGE EDITION's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 244). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. RACE THE SUN CHALLENGE EDITION sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Jailbreak! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
RACE THE SUN CHALLENGE EDITION holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RACE THE SUN CHALLENGE EDITION has 1.6K ratings behind it against 244, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of RACE THE SUN CHALLENGE EDITION's written reviews are positive against 60% of Jailbreak!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
RACE THE SUN CHALLENGE EDITION ships an update monthly, Jailbreak! weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
