Train Matching Game
Read full descriptionHide full description
A matching game of trains and subways. Flip over two cards at a time and match the pictures of trains to transform into a three-car train and run. If the pictures don't match, the train reverts to a card. A memory game for one player. 83 types of trains, both old and new, will appear randomly. You can select and fix the number of cards according to the level you have cleared. If you want to play with fewer cards, tap the fix number of cards button. You can level up to a maximum of 54 cards. There is no limit on the number of mistakes or time, so please take your time to play.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Train Matching Game at Free against TrainSet 3D's $0.99. Train Matching Game also leads on update cadence (every 11 months vs every 39 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). TrainSet 3D's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
