Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: WDWNT at Free against Mardi Gras+'s $0.99. WDWNT also leads on rating (2.9 vs 1.0) and review sentiment (36% vs 0%). Mardi Gras+'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 5 months). On in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
