Verdict

The call

Plane Shoot and Starfighter both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Starfighter's written reviews are positive against 33% of Plane Shoot's. Starfighter also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 27 months). Plane Shoot's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
