Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: A.R.C.A.D.E. at every 4 days against TENKYU's monthly. A.R.C.A.D.E. also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). TENKYU's advantage is ratings volume (255K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
