Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Easy as ABC at none against Light Cross's 10. Easy as ABC also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Light Cross's advantage is ratings volume (51 vs 2) and review sentiment (84% vs 75%). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Light Cross sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Easy as ABC asks for nothing beyond the download.
Easy as ABC holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Light Cross has 51 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Light Cross's written reviews are positive against 75% of Easy as ABC's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
