Do you like liquid simulations? Do you like the flow behavior of water? Do you like bomb explosions? If yes, then you will have much fun with the Physics Sandbox app. [by gaming-apps.com] Three physics simulations in One: 1. Shipping / Raft Survival: You can build your own ship or use a pre-builted boat and try to survive, if you go on a raft trip with your boat now. 2. Powder Game: If one use the real-time sandbox, then you can play with our bomb simulator or simulate diverse states of waterbody under different influences in every areas of the room. Furthermore you can build for example a house and let it explode later. 3. Liquid simulator: One can watch various structures, ships, buildings, dust etc. and they interact together in different forms, if you insert prefabricated user-actions like a spawner... into the Simulation. Features: - this game is free! - a) sandbox, build for examle a wall and throw bombs to it (Powder Game) - b) raft survival (shipping mode) - c) 24 prefabricated level designs (simulation mode) - construct your own boat with 13 different single parts of a ship - 6 prefabricated levels in the section "shipping" - one can add to a own constructed boat 4 prefabricated - furthermore: 5 bombs types + 5 upgrades per bomb with different explosions - 4000 water particles (soft bodies /powder/ dust) - watch the general behavior of fluid, e.g. pressure, flow behavior, spread in the observation room, special effects, etc. - build and control your boat - create various structures like a house, a seesaw, a tower ... be creative And now have fun with our free physics game everybody! by gaming-apps.com This game is free, but shows ads.

Verdict

The call

Water Physics Simulation and Flight Simulator both sit at 4.2 stars, but that hides the real split: 76% of Water Physics Simulation's written reviews are positive against 17% of Flight Simulator's. Water Physics Simulation also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Flight Simulator's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
