Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Deeper Well at none against WORLD 1's 7. Deeper Well also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.3) and update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). WORLD 1's advantage is ratings volume (136 vs 4) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 12.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
