AIM holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Space Agency 2138 has 228 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of AIM's written reviews are positive against 78% of Space Agency 2138's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
