The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Octagor at none against Shooting Ballz's 6. Octagor also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). Shooting Ballz's advantage is ratings volume (25 vs 4). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
