Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Last Oasis at 4.6 against Commanders's 3.7. Commanders's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Commanders sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Last Oasis sells 29 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Last Oasis holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 128 and 86 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of Commanders's written reviews are positive against 50% of Last Oasis's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Commanders ships an update every 3 weeks, Last Oasis fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
