Verdict
Flex Run 3D and First To Life both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 59% of Flex Run 3D's written reviews are positive against 39% of First To Life's. Flex Run 3D also leads on ratings volume (180K vs 26K). First To Life's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
