Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pop Lock Arcade at none against Ada's Kindergarten's 6. Pop Lock Arcade also leads on rating (4.0 vs 3.7). Ada's Kindergarten's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (215 vs 2). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pop Lock Arcade holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ada's Kindergarten has 215 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of Ada's Kindergarten's written reviews are positive against 0% of Pop Lock Arcade's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
