Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: MetroLand at 72% against Beach Running's 17%. MetroLand also leads on rating (4.8 vs 2.3) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 63 months). Beach Running's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
