Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Octopus Evolution at 93% against Cupcake Evolution's 25%. Octopus Evolution also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (4.1K vs 10). Cupcake Evolution's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
