Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Edge at none against Lara Croft GO's 2. Edge also leads on review sentiment (94% vs 79%) and price ($2.99 vs $4.99). Lara Croft GO's advantage is ratings volume (4.6K vs 174) and chart position (#114 vs unranked). On rating, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
