Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Slash! Hero at 4.6 against Gasketball™'s 4.1. Slash! Hero also leads on review sentiment (92% vs 75%) and device support (3 vs 1). Gasketball™'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
