Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Mercenaries Saga2 at none against ATOM RPG's shown. Mercenaries Saga2 also leads on price ($2.99 vs $9.99) and rating (4.7 vs 4.3). ATOM RPG's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 44 months) and chart position (#132 vs unranked). On in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
