Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: iBriscola at none against MatchX's 4. iBriscola also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 38 months). MatchX's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 76%) and price ($1.99 vs $2.99). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
