Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Vanilla Dice at 5.0 against Dig Odyssey's 3.4. Vanilla Dice also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Dig Odyssey's advantage is ratings volume (20 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
