Both are free to download. Find the Difference! sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and Five Differences Max Challenge sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Find the Difference! holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Find the Difference! has 688 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Find the Difference!'s written reviews are positive against 76% of Five Differences Max Challenge's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
