Welcome to the old school RPG world of Saga RPG II: Evolution. Story ------ You have rid the lands of the evil Dragon King in your victorious epic battle and the people are thankful. However, the Skeleton King is now gaining power and the land is again being threatened. You are once again being called to arms to uphold peace as you journey through the lands. May your sword stay ever sharp. What to expect -------------- This game is built to be lightweight. The download is tiny, and the game processing is minimal. To accomplish this, the game itself is pretty simple.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Saga RPG II at none against Astrocave's 1. Saga RPG II also leads on ratings volume (75 vs 6). Astrocave's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
