Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Descourse at 100% against MD Lottery's 8%. Descourse also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.2) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 weeks). MD Lottery's advantage is ratings volume (544 vs 5) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
