Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Wacky Squad at every 3 days against Mini Heroes's fortnightly. Wacky Squad also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Mini Heroes's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 45%) and ratings volume (11K vs 1.2K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
