REAL WORLD MAPS Play on 7 beautifully crafted maps — North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Oceania, or the entire World. Each map plays differently.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Empire Creator at none against Roolz's 4. Empire Creator also leads on ads (none vs shown). Roolz's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
