Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Storm the Train at 1.7K against Night Slashers's 3. Storm the Train also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.6). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Storm the Train sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Night Slashers sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Storm the Train holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Storm the Train has 1.7K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 95% of Storm the Train's written reviews are positive against 100% of Night Slashers's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
