Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Great Conqueror at 4.7 against Ligato's 2.5. Great Conqueror also leads on ratings volume (4.7K vs 4) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). Ligato's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
