Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Imperial Cook at 5.0 against Bake's 4.4. Imperial Cook also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Bake's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 31 months) and ratings volume (34 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
