Read full descriptionHide full description
Can you survive where no one is coming to save you? Lunar Crisis puts you in command of four stranded astronauts, fighting against time, isolation, and failing systems. Your mission: repair a damaged ship on a dead moon—and get everyone home alive. This is more than a survival game. Lunar Crisis is a test of resourcefulness and pressure management, crafted to teach probabilistic thinking. Monitor, repair… or perish. Lunar Crisis is volume 2 of the Mental Model Minis Series.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: A Lunar Crisis at none against Ant's shown. Ant's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 8 days). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
