Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Donut Drop at none against Merge County's 10. Donut Drop also leads on update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). Merge County's advantage is chart position (#137 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
