Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Ever Knight at none against ScourgeBringer's shown. Ever Knight also leads on price ($0.99 vs $5.99) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). ScourgeBringer's advantage is ratings volume (485 vs 19) and chart position (#184 vs unranked). On rating, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
