Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Idle Burst at none against Doomsday Clicker's shown. Idle Burst also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). Doomsday Clicker's advantage is ratings volume (3.2K vs 29). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
