Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Elemental Forces at none against KeycapLab's 1. Elemental Forces also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). KeycapLab's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 3 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
