# BlockStarPlanet vs City Glider

The clearest difference is review sentiment: City Glider at 100% against BlockStarPlanet's 55%. City Glider also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). BlockStarPlanet's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (14K vs 1). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BlockStarPlanet sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. City Glider asks for nothing beyond the download.

BlockStarPlanet holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BlockStarPlanet has 14K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of BlockStarPlanet's written reviews are positive against 100% of City Glider's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

BlockStarPlanet ships an update every 2 months, City Glider fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
