Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: 3 at 5.0 against Cribbage Royale's 3.6. 3 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Cribbage Royale's advantage is ratings volume (40 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.5). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cribbage Royale sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and 3 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
