BitPrism

The App is made so you can play retro games through a emulator. This emulator does not provide any games but you will have to add your own through the file system. This emulator was made by a developer for a developer. Most emulators require you to watch many ads or pay way to much and i thought it was unfair so now we have this one.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BitPrism at none against Bear Emu's 3. BitPrism also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 2 months). Bear Emu's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
