Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Time Shift Snake at none against Snake's 1. Time Shift Snake also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Snake's advantage is ratings volume (174 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
