ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Ark Runner holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Animal Tower! has 141 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Animal Tower!'s written reviews are positive against 50% of Ark Runner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
