Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CreatureLab at none against Creature Picross's 4. CreatureLab also leads on ads (none vs shown). Creature Picross's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 3 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
