Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Mmm Fingers 2 at 4.5 against Shadow Trick's 4.0. Mmm Fingers 2 also leads on ratings volume (8.9K vs 33) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). Shadow Trick's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (68% vs 54%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Mmm Fingers 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mmm Fingers 2 has 8.9K ratings behind it against 33, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Mmm Fingers 2's written reviews are positive against 68% of Shadow Trick's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
