Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Clone Evolution at none against Hero Castle War's shown. Clone Evolution also leads on review sentiment (65% vs 53%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Hero Castle War's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clone Evolution sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and Hero Castle War sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hero Castle War holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1.8K and 1.4K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Clone Evolution's written reviews are positive against 53% of Hero Castle War's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
