- Navigate moving platforms
- Two difficulty modes
- Checkpoints and undo (Hard mode)
- No checkpoints (Impossible mode)

Tap to jump, stick to stuff. Simple, right? You control a squishy blob that can stick to almost anything. Time the moving arrow and tap to jump. Stick your way up terrain, metal beam things, pipes, moving platforms, spinning platforms, and more. wow Be careful, however, as one wrong jump could land you back at the very beginning. The game features two difficulty modes: hard and impossible. Hard mode features checkpoints and an undo move button. Impossible mode has no checkpoints and a faster arrow. But like I'm serious when I say impossible because I doubt anyone will ever complete the game in impossible mode. Keep your cool, improve your jumping skills, and stick with it to the very end.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Stick With It at 4.4 against au's 3.7. Stick With It also leads on review sentiment (84% vs 57%) and ratings volume (6K vs 36). au's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 16 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
