Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Snake Vortex! at none against Skate Life 3D's 7. Snake Vortex! also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Skate Life 3D's advantage is ratings volume (1.2K vs 5) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
