Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Crazy Eights at 61% against Kaiser's 0%. Crazy Eights also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 2). Kaiser's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Kaiser holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Crazy Eights has 1.6K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Crazy Eights's written reviews are positive against 0% of Kaiser's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
