Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Donut Games at 4.5 against Micro Battles 3's 3.9. Donut Games also leads on review sentiment (90% vs 56%) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 45 months). Micro Battles 3's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
