Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Roundabouts! at none against Train Simulator's 5. Roundabouts! also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (210 vs 9). Train Simulator's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 67%). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
