Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Game ID at none against CLZ Games's 2. Game ID also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). CLZ Games's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (1.6K vs 5). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. CLZ Games sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Game ID asks for nothing beyond the download.
Game ID holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CLZ Games has 1.6K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two.
