Verdict

The call

Splashin and Manhunt both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 98% of Splashin's written reviews are positive against 32% of Manhunt's. Splashin also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (260K vs 1.8K). Manhunt's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 11 days) and chart position (#5 vs #111). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
