Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Mutant Escape ! at Free against Apple Pick's $0.99. Mutant Escape ! also leads on rating (4.0 vs 1.0) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 38 months). Apple Pick's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.
