Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Shadow Blaster at none against Super Tiny Football's shown. Shadow Blaster also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (weekly vs monthly). Super Tiny Football's advantage is ratings volume (3.9K vs 1) and chart position (#94 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
