Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: here at none against red (game)'s shown. here also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (6K vs 511). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. red (game) sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and here sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
