Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Townopolis at none against Heck Deck's shown. Townopolis also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Heck Deck's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (129 vs 5). On review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Heck Deck costs $2.99 and Townopolis $3.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Townopolis holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Heck Deck has 129 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Heck Deck's written reviews are positive against 71% of Townopolis's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Heck Deck ships an update weekly, Townopolis every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and August 20, 2026 respectively.
