Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pluto at none against Virtual Scoreboard's 3. Pluto also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.9 vs 4.7). Virtual Scoreboard's advantage is ratings volume (23K vs 30) and update cadence (every 11 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
