Blade Forge 3D and Mobile Run both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 75% of Mobile Run's written reviews are positive against 11% of Blade Forge 3D's. Blade Forge 3D's advantage is ratings volume (66K vs 835) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
