Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Tallyman at none against Solitaire's shown. Tallyman also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 81%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Solitaire's advantage is ratings volume (693K vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
