Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Psychofunk at none against Codenames's 1. Psychofunk also leads on review sentiment (86% vs 66%) and iOS requirement (10 vs 15.0). Codenames's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 11). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
