Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Anarchy at Free against Scarecase's $1.99. Anarchy also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 10 months). Scarecase's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.4). On ads there is nothing between them.
