Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FootBored at none against Ultimate Cribbage's 10. FootBored also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Ultimate Cribbage's advantage is ratings volume (31K vs 3). On price, update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
