Excellent rating, the laptop is taken apart on the shelves in stores and the whole world is talking about your company. The competitors are furious and bewildered, but that's what we wanted.

You better try it yourself! Good game! And remember, the person who breaks the wall first always gets the most bumps. Become this person!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: PC Simulator at 3.9 against Laptop Tycoon's 2.7. Laptop Tycoon's advantage is review sentiment (32% vs 23%). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PC Simulator sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Laptop Tycoon sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

PC Simulator holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 2.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 118 and 239 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 23% of PC Simulator's written reviews are positive against 32% of Laptop Tycoon's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
