Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dark Road at none against First To Life's 1. Dark Road also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). First To Life's advantage is ratings volume (26K vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
