Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ChessMentor at none against Word Blitz ・'s 15. ChessMentor also leads on ads (none vs shown). Word Blitz ・'s advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and chart position (#75 vs unranked). On price there is nothing between them.
