Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: RPGPlayer at weekly against Countdown's every 5 months. RPGPlayer also leads on chart position (#41 vs unranked). Countdown's advantage is price ($1.99 vs $6.99). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
