Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Universal Studios Singapore at none against SimplyGo's shown. Universal Studios Singapore also leads on review sentiment (34% vs 14%). SimplyGo's advantage is ratings volume (433 vs 14) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for SimplyGo against 4.5 for Universal Studios Singapore.
