Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Gargoyle Runner 2 at none against Tornado.io!'s 10. Gargoyle Runner 2 also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). Tornado.io!'s advantage is ratings volume (98K vs 6) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
