Both are free to download. Happy Fall sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Don't Touch The Spikes sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Don't Touch The Spikes holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Don't Touch The Spikes has 9.2K ratings behind it against 125, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Happy Fall's written reviews are positive against 42% of Don't Touch The Spikes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
