Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Glowfish HD at 156 against Blue Attack!'s 11. Glowfish HD also leads on iOS requirement (3.2 vs 16.0). Blue Attack!'s advantage is device support. On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Blue Attack! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Glowfish HD sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Blue Attack! holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Glowfish HD has 156 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of Blue Attack!'s written reviews are positive against 91% of Glowfish HD's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
