Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Lumen at none against Dicey Elementalist's shown. Lumen also leads on update cadence (daily vs monthly). Dicey Elementalist's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
