Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hoop Hopper! at none against Flying Gorilla's 7. Hoop Hopper! also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). Flying Gorilla's advantage is ratings volume (58K vs 22). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
