The clearest difference is rating: Metaphysics at 5.0 against Pocket Rogues's 4.5. Metaphysics also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). Pocket Rogues's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (1K vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pocket Rogues sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Metaphysics sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
