Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Sci at Free against Space Station Challenge's $1.99. Sci also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). Space Station Challenge's advantage is update cadence (every 29 months vs every 58 months). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
