Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Mouse ! at none against Roll the Ball®'s shown. Mouse ! also leads on iOS requirement (5.1.1 vs 15.0). Roll the Ball®'s advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (17K vs 101). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
