Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Wild Forest at Free against Wildlife Simulator's $0.99. Wild Forest also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 48 months). Wildlife Simulator's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (79% vs 50%). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
