Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Cribbage Score at Free against Cribtastic's $4.99. Cribbage Score also leads on ratings volume (521 vs 59) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). Cribtastic's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and rating (4.9 vs 4.7). On ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
