Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hello Governor! at none against Prison Break's 19. Hello Governor! also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Prison Break's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and chart position (#134 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
