Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Spell Academy at none against Wordjamacallit's 4. Spell Academy also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Wordjamacallit's advantage is ratings volume (794 vs 5) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
