Verdict

The call

Tiny Armies and S both sit at 4.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 83% of S's written reviews are positive against 55% of Tiny Armies's. S also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 16.0). Tiny Armies's advantage is ratings volume (310 vs 9) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). On rating, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
