Verdict

The call

Fantamon and DIGIMON UP both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 58% of Fantamon's written reviews are positive against 35% of DIGIMON UP's. Fantamon also leads on chart position (#60 vs unranked). DIGIMON UP's advantage is ratings volume (9.7K vs 700) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
