Midnight Pulp's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 141).

Both are free to download. Midnight Pulp sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Troma NOW! sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
