Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Pixel Petz at 4.8 against Daze's 3.9. Pixel Petz also leads on review sentiment (78% vs 57%) and ratings volume (10K vs 253). Daze's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price and update cadence there is nothing between them.
