Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tumblupon at none against Illustail's 1. Tumblupon also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (75% vs 59%). Illustail's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 13 months) and ratings volume (45 vs 4). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
