Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Row Row at 3.8K against Flyboys's 73. Row Row also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.0). Flyboys's advantage is review sentiment (45% vs 33%) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
