ATOM RPG's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 44 months) and ratings volume (222 vs 38). On in-app purchases, monetization model, chart position and device support there is nothing between them.

Mercenaries Saga2 costs $2.99 and ATOM RPG $9.99 up front. Mercenaries Saga2 sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and ATOM RPG sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ATOM RPG has 222 ratings behind it against 38, so its average is the more settled of the two.
