Verdict
Subway Surfers and Flip Man! both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 87% of Subway Surfers's written reviews are positive against 42% of Flip Man!'s. Subway Surfers also leads on ratings volume (3.9M vs 14K) and chart position (#8 vs unranked). Flip Man!'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
