Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Lost Pirates at none against PENG!uin's 3. The Lost Pirates also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). PENG!uin's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 14 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
