Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Num Fight at $0.99 against Chess Premium's $9.99. Num Fight also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 80%). Chess Premium's advantage is ratings volume (5.4K vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 9 months). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
