Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Six Flags at Free against Coaster's $8.99. Six Flags also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.3) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months). Coaster's advantage is review sentiment (41% vs 9%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.6). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Six Flags is free to download; Coaster costs $8.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Six Flags holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Six Flags has 171K ratings behind it against 30, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 9% of Six Flags's written reviews are positive against 41% of Coaster's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Six Flags ships an update fortnightly, Coaster every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
