Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Roller Coaster at none against Ball Action's shown. Roller Coaster also leads on review sentiment (63% vs 39%) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). Ball Action's advantage is ratings volume (38K vs 4.9K). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
