Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Famd at free against Throne's free with in-app purchases. Famd also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 9 days). Throne's advantage is ratings volume (8.2K vs 1) and chart position (#145 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
