Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Pogo Sky at none against Shoot The Moon's shown. Pogo Sky also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.0). Shoot The Moon's advantage is review sentiment (90% vs 62%) and ratings volume (5.3K vs 720). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
