Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Card Yard at 100% against GameFly's 37%. Card Yard also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and chart position (#77 vs unranked). GameFly's advantage is price (Free vs $0.99) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 39 months). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
