Verdict
Yourgi and The Ruff Hotail both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of The Ruff Hotail's written reviews are positive against 26% of Yourgi's. Yourgi's advantage is ratings volume (2.7K vs 8) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
