Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Snake 2 at none against Snake's shown. Snake 2 also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). Snake's advantage is rating (4.1 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (121 vs 12). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
