Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: FlashGrid+ at none against Original Farkle's shown. FlashGrid+ also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). Original Farkle's advantage is ratings volume (4.5K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
