Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: DarknessBot at 58% against GotWay's 0%. DarknessBot also leads on rating (4.8 vs 1.8) and ratings volume (1.9K vs 8). GotWay's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
