Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: War Tortoise at 4.9 against Mega Tank's 4.4. War Tortoise also leads on review sentiment (86% vs 57%) and ratings volume (7K vs 51). Mega Tank's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
