Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Ultimate Cribbage at 80% against Kaiser's 0%. Ultimate Cribbage also leads on ratings volume (31K vs 2). Kaiser's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ultimate Cribbage sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Kaiser sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Kaiser holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ultimate Cribbage has 31K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Ultimate Cribbage's written reviews are positive against 0% of Kaiser's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
