Militant. Armed. Domestic. Cows! For centuries, the aliens mutilated cattle with little to no consequence. Finally, the cows had enough. They organized. They trained. Now they are ready... for their revenge! MAD Cows is an exciting, retro, action platform game. Mow down aliens. Buy better guns. Rescue cows, dogs, raccoons, and more. Plays great with MFi, Xbox, and Playstation controllers.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Numbed at Free against M.A.D. Cows's $1.99. Numbed also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (40 vs 1). M.A.D. Cows's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). On review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Numbed is free to download; M.A.D. Cows costs $1.99 up front. Numbed sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. M.A.D. Cows asks for nothing beyond the download.
Numbed holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Numbed has 40 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Numbed's written reviews are positive against 100% of M.A.D. Cows's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
