Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Ilokano Random at 100% against Ling's 61%. Ilokano Random also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 22) and ads (none vs shown). Ling's advantage is ratings volume (16K vs 3) and chart position (#63 vs unranked). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
