# Landlord Simulator vs GossipMaster

Landlord Simulator and GossipMaster both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 74% of GossipMaster's written reviews are positive against 16% of Landlord Simulator's. GossipMaster also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (82K vs 16K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Landlord Simulator sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and GossipMaster sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Landlord Simulator against 4.7 for GossipMaster. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GossipMaster has 82K ratings behind it against 16K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 16% of Landlord Simulator's written reviews are positive against 74% of GossipMaster's.

Landlord Simulator ships an update every 5 weeks, GossipMaster every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on September 28, 2026.
