Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Christmas Simulator at 5.0 against AR Sumo's 4.3. Christmas Simulator also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 6 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). AR Sumo's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 71%) and ratings volume (7 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
