Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Dancing Grounds at 5.0 against The NOAC's 3.7. Dancing Grounds also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 10 months). The NOAC's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
