Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Splash at none against TENKYU's shown. Splash also leads on review sentiment (73% vs 59%) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 13.0). TENKYU's advantage is ratings volume (255K vs 1.8K) and rating (4.6 vs 4.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Splash sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and TENKYU sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

TENKYU holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TENKYU has 255K ratings behind it against 1.8K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Splash's written reviews are positive against 59% of TENKYU's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
