Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: CaveGo at every 4 days against Pop & Drop!'s every 6 months. CaveGo also leads on ratings volume (14 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Pop & Drop!'s advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
