Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hero Monkey Adventure at none against Verticus's 10. Hero Monkey Adventure also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). Verticus's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (4.3 vs 9.0). On price there is nothing between them.
