Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Duckers at none against Super Penguins's shown. Duckers also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). Super Penguins's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (3.9K vs 80). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
