Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Magic World at none against Maximus 2's shown. Magic World also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). Maximus 2's advantage is review sentiment (71% vs 40%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 10 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
