Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Chompy Chomp at none against Mars's 10. Chompy Chomp also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Mars's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 17 months) and ratings volume (22K vs 1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
