Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pocket Press at 95% against Handyman! 3D's 37%. Pocket Press also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 2 weeks). Handyman! 3D's advantage is ratings volume (19K vs 159). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
