Verdict
FlicKuma! and teamLab both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 70% of FlicKuma!'s written reviews are positive against 39% of teamLab's. FlicKuma! also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). teamLab's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 25 months) and ratings volume (2.1K vs 12). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
