Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Pop Island at none against Grumpy Goats's shown. Pop Island also leads on ratings volume (3K vs 2) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). Grumpy Goats's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
