Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Dice Dice Pro at 389 against ShadowGen's 1. Dice Dice Pro also leads on chart position (#123 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (12.2 vs 15.1). ShadowGen's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and price ($0.99 vs $2.99). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
