Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Makis Adventure Lite at none against Tallowmere 2's 1. Makis Adventure Lite also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 77%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Tallowmere 2's advantage is ratings volume (136 vs 2) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Tallowmere 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tallowmere 2 has 136 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of Tallowmere 2's written reviews are positive against 100% of Makis Adventure Lite's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
