Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Geometry Dash Lite at none against Pokémon GO's 30. Geometry Dash Lite also leads on review sentiment (70% vs 44%) and rating (4.3 vs 4.0). Pokémon GO's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 months) and chart position (#1 vs #3). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
