# Cargo King vs City Bloxx

The clearest difference is rating: City Bloxx at 4.5 against Cargo King's 4.1. City Bloxx also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (660 vs 21). Cargo King's advantage is review sentiment (60% vs 40%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cargo King sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and City Bloxx sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

City Bloxx holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: City Bloxx has 660 ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Cargo King's written reviews are positive against 40% of City Bloxx's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Cargo King ships an update every 3 months, City Bloxx every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
