Verdict
Masquerade Dance and Ultra Dance both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Ultra Dance's written reviews are positive against 44% of Masquerade Dance's. Ultra Dance also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Masquerade Dance's advantage is ratings volume (267 vs 51) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
