Verdict
GameStop and G FUEL both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 65% of G FUEL's written reviews are positive against 18% of GameStop's. GameStop's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for GameStop against 4.8 for G FUEL.
