Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hole City at none against Mob Era's 10. Hole City also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Mob Era's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (3.3K vs 10). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
