Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Dinosaur Slayer at none against Dinosaur Safari's shown. Dinosaur Slayer also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 7 months) and review sentiment (76% vs 57%). Dinosaur Safari's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
