Verdict
Demon RPG and Shadow Knights both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 83% of Demon RPG's written reviews are positive against 40% of Shadow Knights's. Shadow Knights's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 14 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
