Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Surgiverse at none against Today in History's 7. Surgiverse also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Today in History's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 38 months) and ratings volume (231 vs 2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
