Reading the difference

Some dimensions are excluded because one studio does not publish that figure.

Both titles are built on the same format family: Ways to win. Differences between them therefore come from tuning, not from structure.
They come from different studios — NetEnt and Play’n GO — which is what makes the comparison useful: the same problem, two house styles.
Published RTP: 96.09% against 96.20% — Sails of Riches is 0.11 points higher. RTP is a long-run theoretical figure, not a session forecast.
Win caps differ by about 1.5×: 15,000× against 10,000×, with Spice higher. A cap is a rulebook ceiling, not an expectation.
Volatility cannot be compared: Spice does not publish a rating.
Worth noticing: the higher RTP and the higher win cap sit on opposite sides. Sails of Riches returns more in theory over the long run, while Spice reaches further at its ceiling. The two numbers answer different questions.
