Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Fruit Playground at 4.5 against AR's 3.2. Fruit Playground also leads on review sentiment (85% vs 44%) and ratings volume (2K vs 17). AR's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Fruit Playground holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Fruit Playground has 2K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 44% of AR's written reviews are positive against 85% of Fruit Playground's.
