The clearest difference is update cadence: Mecha Fire at fortnightly against Kingshot's every 2 months. Mecha Fire also leads on review sentiment (41% vs 24%). Kingshot's advantage is ratings volume (234K vs 17K) and chart position (#2 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
