Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Castle Rivals at 4.5 against UBoat Commander's 3.3. Castle Rivals also leads on ratings volume (1.8K vs 3) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). UBoat Commander's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 9 days) and review sentiment (50% vs 40%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Castle Rivals sells 14 one-off in-app purchases and UBoat Commander sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Castle Rivals holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Castle Rivals has 1.8K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Castle Rivals's written reviews are positive against 50% of UBoat Commander's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Castle Rivals ships an update every 9 days, UBoat Commander every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
