Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Pizza Hero at every 3 days against Micro RPG's weekly. Pizza Hero also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Micro RPG's advantage is ratings volume (7.8K vs 1.5K). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
