Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Darkwing at none against Castiva Player's 5. Darkwing also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (5.1.1 vs 16.4). Castiva Player's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
