Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Core Image Toy at Free against Zeitgeist's $1.99. Core Image Toy also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 63%) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). Zeitgeist's advantage is chart position (#83 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
