# Stellar Command vs Brick Block

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Stellar Command at 100% against Brick Block's 44%. Stellar Command also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Brick Block's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 17 months) and ratings volume (13K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Stellar Command sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Brick Block sells 15 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Stellar Command holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Brick Block has 13K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Stellar Command's written reviews are positive against 44% of Brick Block's.

Stellar Command ships an update every 17 months, Brick Block every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
