Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Stickman Ride at 5.0 against Pac.io's 4.1. Pac.io's advantage is ratings volume (342 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Pac.io sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Stickman Ride sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Stickman Ride holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pac.io has 342 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
