Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HALKA at none against Zoo Shuffle's 6. HALKA also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). Zoo Shuffle's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price there is nothing between them.
