Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: ZZizzle at none against Hidden Objects's shown. ZZizzle also leads on review sentiment (83% vs 53%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Hidden Objects's advantage is ratings volume (2K vs 2). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
