Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: POPFLEX at none against The Cupboard's 6. POPFLEX also leads on review sentiment (95% vs 68%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). The Cupboard's advantage is chart position (#171 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
