Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Destroy and Build at 4.6 against Trainee War's 2.7. Destroy and Build also leads on ratings volume (156 vs 7). Trainee War's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Destroy and Build sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Trainee War asks for nothing beyond the download.
Destroy and Build holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Destroy and Build has 156 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Trainee War's written reviews are positive against 20% of Destroy and Build's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Trainee War ships an update every 9 days, Destroy and Build every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
