Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Asteroids RC at none against Chess Online +'s 8. Asteroids RC also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Chess Online +'s advantage is ratings volume (27K vs 1) and chart position (#173 vs unranked). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
