Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Message Games at 4.4 against GameChat's 3.0. Message Games also leads on ratings volume (11 vs 2). GameChat's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Message Games sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. GameChat asks for nothing beyond the download.
Message Games holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Message Games has 11 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of GameChat's written reviews are positive against 86% of Message Games's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
