The call

The clearest difference is ads: Super Pixelander at none against PlayDrop's shown. Super Pixelander also leads on iOS requirement (6.0 vs 18.6). PlayDrop's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
