Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Magic Flute at none against Wave Dash's shown. Magic Flute also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 84%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Wave Dash's advantage is ratings volume (12K vs 12) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
