Verdict

The call

Metal Force and Bumper.io both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 79% of Metal Force's written reviews are positive against 38% of Bumper.io's. Metal Force also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). Bumper.io's advantage is ratings volume (196K vs 35) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
