And when you die — and you will — the game has something to say about it. Personally. — One thumb. Instantly playable, brutally hard to master. — 10 worlds to unlock by distance, from the Meadow to the Moon, Mars and beyond. — Living backgrounds: butterflies, passing rockets, drifting comets and underwater creatures. — Four shapes. Four character families. Wildling Squares, Arctic Circles, Ocean Triangles and Earth Diamonds. — Become a polar bear, shark, armadillo, cosmic traveller and more. Each purchased skin unlocks its matching character across every shape. — Earn special world skins by reaching new distances. — Leave your mark with swirling leaves, sparkling stars, glowing embers and shimmering moon dust. — Mix your look with hats and shades. — Your best run is planted in the world as a flag.

The clearest difference is ads: Samurai’s Dozen at none against MegaSmol's shown. MegaSmol's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
