Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mining Rush at 4.4 against Mine Drill's 3.8. Mining Rush also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (784 vs 5). Mine Drill's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 12). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
