Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Summoner Wars Online at 80% against Zombie Dice's 47%. Summoner Wars Online also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 7 months) and rating (4.7 vs 4.3). Zombie Dice's advantage is ratings volume (1.8K vs 112) and iOS requirement (9.1 vs 17.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
