Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Crazy Ninja! at none against Stick Hero's 5. Crazy Ninja! also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 months). Stick Hero's advantage is ratings volume (11K vs 1) and rating (4.3 vs 4.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
