The clearest difference is update cadence: SHKOBBA at fortnightly against Scopa!'s every 3 months. SHKOBBA also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 86%). Scopa!'s advantage is ratings volume (3.8K vs 6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
