Finally, the classic Ship-Captain-Crew dice game that is mobile and easy to play! No need to find the dice, pencil, or paper. One low price for the fully featured game, no annoying ads, and no personal information is collected. This Ship-Captain-Crew app follows the traditional game rules that you play today: Roll 5 dice for a limited number of rounds (3?). Get a 6 (Ship), then get a 5 (Captain), then get a 4 (Crew) in order to score points from the two remaining dice. If you are lucky, roll 6-5-4 in a single roll and have 2 more rounds to maximize your score! Rules and how to Set Up: 1- Ship-Captain-Crew rules vary by area. This App supports up to 8 players. This App will roll the 5 dice, update the scores, and total the wins. 2- Set Up. Decide who goes first and how many rolls each player gets per round. Most gamers limit the rolls to 3 per round. Enter player's names. 3- Rules. The goal is to score the most points. In order to score, a player must first roll and save a 6 (Ship), and then a 5 (Captain), and then a 4 (Crew). The remaining 2 dice are added up for that round's score. A player can roll a 6 and 5 (and 4) on the same roll. However, a 6 must be present before a 5 can be saved...and a 5 must be present before a 4 can be saved. All players can only roll up to the same number of times that the first player rolled. No 6, 5, and 4 in a round? Score is 0. 4- Options Tab: Enter Sound options, the Number of Players, and a Game Color. 5- Game Tab: Select active Player. The Score will automatically update. Wins are tabulated when a round is done. 6- To end the round, select the green "repeat" icon. 7- To erase the game, players and scores, select the green "remove players" icon. "Play, Socialize, Repeat" Enjoy.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Speed at Free against Ship Cap Crew's $0.99. Speed also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 7 months) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). Ship Cap Crew's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
