Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Driven Ship at none against Phoenix 2's 11. Driven Ship also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.2 vs 15.0). Phoenix 2's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
