Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Jump Kid Retro at 5.0 against Bumpy Road's 4.6. Jump Kid Retro also leads on price ($0.99 vs $2.99). Bumpy Road's advantage is ratings volume (31 vs 1) and update cadence (every 9 months vs every 24 months). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
