Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Nova Match at 100% against Fancy Blast's 57%. Nova Match also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Fancy Blast's advantage is ratings volume (2.2K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
