Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mela at 100% against Dark Maze!'s 0%. Mela also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Dark Maze!'s advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
