Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: SLS Echon at 5.0 against SIMPlus's 3.6. SLS Echon also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and update cadence (daily vs fortnightly). SIMPlus's advantage is ratings volume (167 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
