Your friends are in danger, you must protect them! Eleven's Protection is an arcade-style defense game where you defend the characters by flicking enemy vehicles away. As the level progresses more and more enemies will come and at faster speeds. Once all of the characters' health goes to zero, it's game over. Be sure to pull the waffles towards them though for a boost of health. Let's see if you can get the high score. Eleven's Protection is not affiliated in any way with Netflix or the series "Stranger Things", any similarities are coincidental.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Eleven's Protection at 3.6 against Stranger Cubes's 2.0.

On price, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
