Game Time is a digital game timer. The visual design has been made by a tournament chess player to ensure maximum efficiency and minimal distraction. There are five different types of game clocks available. * Standard: Both players get a certain amount of time for the whole game. * Fischer: After playing a move and pressing the clock the time of the player is increased by a certain amount of time called the delay time. * Bronstein: Like the Fischer clock, but the time is increased by no more than the thinking time for that move. * Simple Delay: The clock only starts running after the delay time has passed. * Hour Glass: The time used by one player is added to the clock of the other player. So, the sum of both clocks stays constant. Independent of the clock type you can set the initial time of the clock. Either both players get the same amount of time, or you can set the initial time for each player separately. For the Fischer, Bronstein and Simple Delay clock you can also set the delay time. Also this value can be set either per player, or one value for both players. Enjoy!

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Calculator Quest at 4.1 against Game Time's 2.0. Calculator Quest also leads on ratings volume (14 vs 3). Game Time's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Calculator Quest holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 14 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Game Time's written reviews are positive against 72% of Calculator Quest's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Game Time ships an update weekly, Calculator Quest every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
