# Carmageddon! vs Wheel Offroad

The clearest difference is rating: Wheel Offroad at 3.1 against Carmageddon!'s 2.3. Wheel Offroad also leads on ratings volume (1.9K vs 10). Carmageddon!'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Wheel Offroad sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Carmageddon! asks for nothing beyond the download.

Wheel Offroad holds the better App Store score, 3.1 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wheel Offroad has 1.9K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Carmageddon!'s written reviews are positive against 7% of Wheel Offroad's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Carmageddon! ships an update every 2 days, Wheel Offroad every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
