Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Nostrmo at Free against Talrik's $3.99. Nostrmo also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (4 vs 1). Talrik's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
