Verdict
KHL and Skill both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 78% of Skill's written reviews are positive against 36% of KHL's. Skill also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 5 weeks). KHL's advantage is ratings volume (1.9K vs 83). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. KHL sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Skill sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $17.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for KHL against 4.8 for Skill. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: KHL has 1.9K ratings behind it against 83, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 36% of KHL's written reviews are positive against 78% of Skill's.
KHL ships an update every 5 weeks, Skill every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
