Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SandBox at 4.6 against Gravity Sandbox 2's 3.0. SandBox also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (46K vs 3). Gravity Sandbox 2's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (50% vs 37%). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Gravity Sandbox 2 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. SandBox asks for nothing beyond the download.
SandBox holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SandBox has 46K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Gravity Sandbox 2's written reviews are positive against 37% of SandBox's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
