Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Riddles & Glory at 5.0 against Pac.io's 4.2. Riddles & Glory also leads on ads (none vs shown). Pac.io's advantage is ratings volume (340 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Pac.io sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Riddles & Glory sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Riddles & Glory holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pac.io has 340 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
