Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Explode at Free against Mouse About's $0.99. Explode also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 13 months). Mouse About's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
