# Off the Rails 3D vs Drop the Drop

The clearest difference is update cadence: Drop the Drop at fortnightly against Off the Rails 3D's every 4 months. Drop the Drop also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5). Off the Rails 3D's advantage is ratings volume (42K vs 2.4K). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Off the Rails 3D sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Drop the Drop sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Drop the Drop holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Off the Rails 3D has 42K ratings behind it against 2.4K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 14% of Off the Rails 3D's written reviews are positive against 20% of Drop the Drop's.

Off the Rails 3D ships an update every 4 months, Drop the Drop fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
