Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Red Hearts at none against Bricky Boy's 1. Red Hearts also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 68%). Bricky Boy's advantage is ratings volume (823 vs 5) and rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bricky Boy sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Red Hearts asks for nothing beyond the download.
Bricky Boy holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bricky Boy has 823 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Red Hearts's written reviews are positive against 68% of Bricky Boy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
