Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mine Rush at 4.6 against Alien Raid's 3.6. Mine Rush also leads on ratings volume (3.2K vs 30) and review sentiment (41% vs 22%). Alien Raid's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 20) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
