Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Cube Link at every 2 months against Flow Free's every 5 months. Cube Link also leads on review sentiment (91% vs 82%). Flow Free's advantage is ratings volume (5.2K vs 967) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
