#1 game in 80 countries. Loved by millions of skateboarders all over the world. "True Skate is clearly something special" - 4.5/5 - Touch Arcade review. True Skate™ is the closest feeling to real-world skateboarding, with a decade long evolution as the ultimate skateboarding sim. True Skate™ is the Official Mobile Game of Street League Skateboarding. PURE PHYSICS CONTROLS Use your fingers like you would your feet on a real skateboard. Flick the board to make it react exactly how you would expect & drag your finger on the ground to push. - Play with one finger, mind skate with 2 fingers, or play with 2 thumbs, now with Gamepad! The skateboard reacts instantly as foot & finger, thumb or stick feels truly connected whether pushing, popping, flipping or grinding. - True Axis's instant & unified physics system listens for swipe, position, direction and strength from the player & processes how the skateboard should respond in real-time. So the same flick in two different points of the skateboard will react very differently. - Literally any trick is possible with TRUE CONTROL of the skateboard, so if you can dream-it, you can do-it!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Posekemo at 100% against True Skate's 51%. Posekemo also leads on price (Free vs $1.99) and update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). True Skate's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and chart position (#1 vs unranked). On in-app purchases, monetization model, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
