Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: R2V at none against NGA Plus's 2. R2V also leads on ratings volume (9 vs 1). NGA Plus's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 weeks). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
