Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Stellar Wind Idle at none against Space Arena's shown. Stellar Wind Idle also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs monthly) and review sentiment (65% vs 54%). Space Arena's advantage is ratings volume (18K vs 595). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Space Arena sells 19 one-off in-app purchases and Stellar Wind Idle sells 16 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Space Arena against 4.7 for Stellar Wind Idle.
