Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Dune! at 4.5 against Stranger Cubes's 2.0. Dune! also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 35 months) and ratings volume (545K vs 1). Stranger Cubes's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 9) and ads (none vs shown). On price, monetization model, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
