Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Emoji Run! at none against Canvas Run's 1. Emoji Run! also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (64% vs 29%). Canvas Run's advantage is ratings volume (35K vs 17) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Canvas Run sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Emoji Run! asks for nothing beyond the download.
Canvas Run holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Canvas Run has 35K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Emoji Run!'s written reviews are positive against 29% of Canvas Run's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
