A WORLD WORTH WALKING Fifteen hand-named trails, from Coastal Path to Starlit Summit. Along the way, forty-six companions wander the paths: foxes, finches, fireflies, and one very special cat. Find them in packs, earn them as gifts, and pet every single one. PLAY AT YOUR OWN PACE Adventure mode keeps hearts and Perfect runs on the line for players who like the climb.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Today Puzzle at none against Petal Path's 4. Petal Path's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 5 months) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
