Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Cribbage Pegboard at none against Cribbage Pro's 5. Cribbage Pegboard also leads on review sentiment (89% vs 58%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Cribbage Pro's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 39 months) and ratings volume (60K vs 1.6K). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
