Germaphobe is a fast paced, arcade style game where the hero, Hazmat Howard, must avoid the never ending attack by mutant germs. There are 200 cities that are infected with 200 unique germs. Do you and Hazmat Howard have what it takes to capture and disinfect all 200? Use the virtual joystick to maneuver Hazmat Howard to avoid mutant germs, collect coins, gain power-ups, and capture germs from cities throughout the world. Capturing germs is only half the battle. Captured germs must also be taken to the Laboratory to be disinfected and stored. Pay for time in the Laboratory with the coins Hazmat Howard collected while playing the game. Don't worry, it will be worth it. Cities have agreed to pay Hazmat Howard for every germ he disinfects. Complete levels to unlock new cities to disinfect. • Game Center support for Leaderboards and Achievements. • iCloud support for syncing your game to multiple devices. • Play for Free for as long as you like. • No Ads!

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: eXPlore at none against Germaphobe's 5. Germaphobe's advantage is device support and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price there is nothing between them.
