# Star Command vs Infinite Galaxy

The clearest difference is price: Infinite Galaxy at Free against Star Command's $2.99. Infinite Galaxy also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (7.2K vs 905). Star Command's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 11) and review sentiment (66% vs 56%). On update cadence, ads, chart position and device support there is nothing between them.

Infinite Galaxy is free to download; Star Command costs $2.99 up front. Infinite Galaxy sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Star Command asks for nothing beyond the download.

Infinite Galaxy holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Infinite Galaxy has 7.2K ratings behind it against 905, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 66% of Star Command's written reviews are positive against 56% of Infinite Galaxy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Star Command ships an update every 10 days, Infinite Galaxy every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
