Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Crib Score at none against Cribbage Premium's 2. Crib Score also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Cribbage Premium's advantage is ratings volume (8.3K vs 6) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
