Verdict

The call

Solid Metal Gear and Laser Bounce Puzzle both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Solid Metal Gear's written reviews are positive against 33% of Laser Bounce Puzzle's. Solid Metal Gear also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 13.0). Laser Bounce Puzzle's advantage is ratings volume (3.7K vs 19). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
