Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Games Keeper at none against Points Tracker's shown. Games Keeper also leads on ratings volume (450 vs 24) and device support (5 vs 2). Points Tracker's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 76%) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
