Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mutant Run 3D at 4.6 against ScaleMan's 4.1. Mutant Run 3D also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). ScaleMan's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and review sentiment (45% vs 27%). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
