Verdict
The clearest difference is price: DOOM at $4.99 against Red Dead Redemption's $39.99. DOOM also leads on ratings volume (1.8K vs 314) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). Red Dead Redemption's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 3.8) and review sentiment (74% vs 54%). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

DOOM costs $4.99 and Red Dead Redemption $39.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Red Dead Redemption holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DOOM has 1.8K ratings behind it against 314, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 54% of DOOM's written reviews are positive against 74% of Red Dead Redemption's.
