Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Candleman at none against DeliCat's shown. Candleman also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (41 vs 2). DeliCat's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

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

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

DeliCat holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Candleman has 41 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of Candleman's written reviews are positive against 75% of DeliCat's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
