Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Robot Jump at none against Subway Surfers's shown. Robot Jump also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and review sentiment (100% vs 87%). Subway Surfers's advantage is ratings volume (3.9M vs 2) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
