Verdict
Arcane and Elder Heroes both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 80% of Elder Heroes's written reviews are positive against 28% of Arcane's. Elder Heroes also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 21 months). Arcane's advantage is ratings volume (515 vs 6). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
