Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Unity holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ICEreality has 10 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
