Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: MakePlay at 5.0 against Dino Cap's 4.5. MakePlay also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). Dino Cap's advantage is ratings volume (440 vs 3) and iOS requirement (5.1 vs 16.4). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
