Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Rummy 500 at 4.7 against Farkle's 4.0. Rummy 500 also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 15 months) and ratings volume (18K vs 37). Farkle's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
