Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Bubble Shooter at 16K against BubblePop Max's 3. Bubble Shooter also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). BubblePop Max's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
