Verdict

The call

MARVEL Strike Force and Spider Fighter 2 both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 75% of Spider Fighter 2's written reviews are positive against 43% of MARVEL Strike Force's. Spider Fighter 2 also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). MARVEL Strike Force's advantage is chart position (#27 vs unranked) and ratings volume (309K vs 56K). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
