The clearest difference is rating: Gartic.io at 4.5 against Like Parent+'s 3.6. Gartic.io also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly) and ratings volume (5.2K vs 529).

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Gartic.io holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gartic.io has 5.2K ratings behind it against 529, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Like Parent+'s written reviews are positive against 41% of Gartic.io's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
