Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GooberThrow at none against Shoot The Moon's 2. GooberThrow also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Shoot The Moon's advantage is ratings volume (5K vs 8) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
