Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Train Survivor at 5.0 against Planet Digger!'s 2.0. Planet Digger!'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Train Survivor holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Planet Digger! has 15 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Train Survivor's written reviews are positive against 17% of Planet Digger!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Train Survivor ships an update every 3 months, Planet Digger! every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 6, 2026 and June 10, 2026 respectively.
