Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Wild Forest at Free against Polar Bear Simulator 2's $0.99. Wild Forest also leads on rating (4.0 vs 3.8). Polar Bear Simulator 2's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (137 vs 7). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Wild Forest holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Polar Bear Simulator 2 has 137 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Polar Bear Simulator 2's written reviews are positive against 50% of Wild Forest's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
