Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Train Defence at none against Time Jumpers's 10. Train Defence also leads on review sentiment (40% vs 14%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Time Jumpers's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 3.8) and update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Time Jumpers holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Time Jumpers has 88 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of Time Jumpers's written reviews are positive against 40% of Train Defence's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Time Jumpers ships an update every 2 days, Train Defence weekly. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
