Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Pixelcade at Free against KR2000's $4.99. Pixelcade also leads on rating (4.0 vs 3.4) and update cadence (every 8 days vs monthly). KR2000's advantage is ratings volume (18 vs 1) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 16.6). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
