Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: StadiumCrush at 100% against IGN Entertainment's 44%. StadiumCrush also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). IGN Entertainment's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (20K vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
