IMPORTANT: VPNClient does not provide or sell VPN accounts. VPNClient is a connection app used by multiple independent VPN service providers. To use this app, you must already have an active VPN account from a provider that supports VPNClient. Your VPN provider will supply the username, password, or other login details required to connect. There is no sign-up or account creation option inside this app. If you downloaded VPNClient without receiving instructions or login details from your VPN provider, you will not be able to use the app. VPNClient allows existing customers of supported VPN providers to securely connect to their provider's VPN servers.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: VPNClient at none against BUFF.Game's 10. VPNClient also leads on ads (none vs shown). BUFF.Game's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 14 months) and ratings volume (847 vs 13). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
