Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: InZones at 5.0 against Flockstar's 4.4. InZones also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 81%). Flockstar's advantage is ratings volume (142 vs 3) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
