Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Skull Keeper at none against Scoreboard's 12. Skull Keeper also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). Scoreboard's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 12 months) and rating (4.4 vs 4.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
