Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Doodle Army at none against GunCrafter Pro's 5. Doodle Army also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (monthly vs every 10 months). GunCrafter Pro's advantage is price ($0.99 vs $1.99). On rating, review sentiment, chart position and device support there is nothing between them.
