Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Dissolve at fortnightly against Zombie Goes Up's every 13 months. Dissolve also leads on ratings volume (118 vs 11). Zombie Goes Up's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 84%) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
