Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Chess at 46% against 9's 0%. Chess also leads on rating (4.9 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (6.8K vs 6). 9's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and iOS requirement (4.3 vs 13.0). On price there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Chess holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chess has 6.8K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 0% of 9's written reviews are positive against 46% of Chess's.
