# Taxi Driver 3D vs Helicopter Flight Simulator

The clearest difference is rating: Taxi Driver 3D at 3.9 against Helicopter Flight Simulator's 3.4. Taxi Driver 3D also leads on review sentiment (48% vs 24%) and ratings volume (2.4K vs 85). Helicopter Flight Simulator's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (5.1 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Taxi Driver 3D sells 14 one-off in-app purchases and Helicopter Flight Simulator sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Taxi Driver 3D holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Taxi Driver 3D has 2.4K ratings behind it against 85, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 48% of Taxi Driver 3D's written reviews are positive against 24% of Helicopter Flight Simulator's.
