# Subway Simulator 3D vs GANGS Valley

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Subway Simulator 3D at 5.3K against GANGS Valley's 36. GANGS Valley's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 16.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Subway Simulator 3D sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and GANGS Valley sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
