Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Nightgate at 4.7 against WonderCat Adventures's 4.3. Nightgate also leads on review sentiment (95% vs 76%) and ratings volume (1.3K vs 71). WonderCat Adventures's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
