Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: ArtDeck at 100% against TourBox Console's 43%. ArtDeck also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.3) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). TourBox Console's advantage is monetization model (free vs paid) and ratings volume (32 vs 4). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
