Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Assassin Academy at none against Trybe's 15. The Assassin Academy also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 77%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Trybe's advantage is ratings volume (722 vs 8). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
