Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Doodle Bowling at 4.3 against Master Shot's 3.7. Doodle Bowling also leads on review sentiment (64% vs 44%). Master Shot's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
