Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HANAplay at none against Pi Generator's 1. HANAplay also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 10 days). Pi Generator's advantage is ratings volume (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 27.0). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
