Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tankoom at none against Hovercraft's 9. Tankoom also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Hovercraft's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (4.2K vs 3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
