Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: CodeMaster at 4.6 against Code's 4.0. CodeMaster also leads on chart position (#103 vs unranked) and ratings volume (140 vs 33). Code's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (every 2 days vs monthly). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
