Lead US platoons to clash with Vietcong in a realistic, innovative approach to the RTS genre. Make hard choices in a narrative driven experience and face the outcome. Radio Commander includes: - 9 main campaign missions (every mission is possible to complete in several different ways) - quick battle mode - 9 animated briefings - 15 unit types, including: infantry, evac choppers, gunships, field artillery, aerial reconnaissance, M113 armored personnel carriers, and napalm-carrying F4 Phantom jets (every unit is described by a unique set of statistics and communicates with commander using a different voice), - full voice over - voice recognition - over 200 dialogue blocks, used to construct radio messages - over 600 story dialogues between units and the commander Reviews: “Buy it for an unforgettable taste of bona fide battlefield chaos. Buy it for the edginess it engenders so effortlessly. Buy it for those dry-lipped “Say again?”s that never get answered.” Rock Paper Shotgun “In many ways, I’d say Radio Commander is one of the most immersive games I’ve played in 2019.” Wargamer “As you get wrapped up in the story, the outcome of missions becomes incredibly tense. I can’t remember a simple “move” order in a strategy game ever being so heart-wrenching, as you sit idly by for minutes at a time (you can speed things up with a timelapse clock, though), waiting to hear back from units, or order a platoon into combat only to be met with silence.” Kotaku

Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Zombie Outbreak Simulator Pro at 322 against Radio Commander's 34. Zombie Outbreak Simulator Pro also leads on chart position (#149 vs unranked). Radio Commander's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 65%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Zombie Outbreak Simulator Pro costs $4.99 and Radio Commander $4.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Zombie Outbreak Simulator Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Zombie Outbreak Simulator Pro has 322 ratings behind it against 34, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Zombie Outbreak Simulator Pro's written reviews are positive against 75% of Radio Commander's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
