Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Brainini at none against Grid Gang's 16. Brainini also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.1 vs 16.4). Grid Gang's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
