Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mutatis at none against Smash Hit's 2. Mutatis also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 2 months). Smash Hit's advantage is ratings volume (109K vs 317) and chart position (#105 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
