Plates, screws, wheels ... Everything you need to achieve whatever you want... MECHANIC With 'MECANIC' kids will have fun assembling several different pieces. Straight lines, elbows, rectangles, triangles ... All his pieces have holes for the power assembled together ... PHYSICS BETWEEN PARTS For more realism, the game manages 'GRAVITY'... The bigger pieces will drive smaller ones around created fixing pins. TONS OF MODELS More than 50 models are available in two levels of difficulty (easy and hard). A FREE MODE In free mode, kids can access all pieces, so they can experiment all their ideas in a world subject to gravity. With 'MECANIC' kids will become kings of DIY ...

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Mini Golf Motion at Free against Mecanic's $1.99. Mini Golf Motion also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). Mecanic's advantage is update cadence (every 24 months vs every 58 months). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
