Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Hedgemaze at none against Match Attack's shown. Hedgemaze also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Match Attack's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
