The clearest difference is ads: brain at none against Ninja Ranger's shown. brain also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 9 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Ninja Ranger's advantage is ratings volume (346 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
