Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SHAKE at 5.0 against Thursday's 4.5. SHAKE also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). Thursday's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (413 vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
