Verdict

The call

My Monkey! and Superhero Crime Simulator both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 71% of My Monkey!'s written reviews are positive against 35% of Superhero Crime Simulator's. My Monkey! also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). Superhero Crime Simulator's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 8 months) and ratings volume (5.3K vs 20). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
