The clearest difference is rating: Shaft Run at 5.0 against Asteroids Blast's 3.0. Asteroids Blast's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (33% vs 0%). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Shaft Run sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Asteroids Blast sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Shaft Run holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Shaft Run's written reviews are positive against 33% of Asteroids Blast's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
