Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Zombie Dash at none against Lantern's shown. Zombie Dash also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.0). Lantern's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 84%) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
