Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Magic Cube Collection at 4.5 against eX's 3.0. Magic Cube Collection also leads on ratings volume (494 vs 7) and review sentiment (69% vs 50%). eX's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
