The clearest difference is ads: Seed at none against Black Ambition's shown. Seed also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Black Ambition's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 46 months) and ratings volume (10 vs 1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
