Read full descriptionHide full description
You need to escape the scary and creepy Horror Mansion. [Description] After wandering about on a dark night, you entered the Horror Mansion. You need to find the exit through all those doors. Ghosts can hear every single sound you make including footsteps, doors, etc. Ghosts will follow you and try to block your way. Leave ghosts out and escape through the door on the first floor. Wish you good luck. [How to Play] Start from the top floor. Choose one door among many and move on to the next floor. There's only one door that leads you to the next floor. If you entered the wrong room, you'd move to the upstairs. When you encountered a ghost, you can't move temporarily. Escape safely from the ghosts.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Horror Mansion at none against BeatTheBug's 1. Horror Mansion also leads on update cadence (every 54 months vs every 209 months) and device support (3 vs 1). BeatTheBug's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.
