Verdict
Sci and Card Ladder both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Sci's written reviews are positive against 51% of Card Ladder's. Sci also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). Card Ladder's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs monthly) and ratings volume (12K vs 15). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
