Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Advent Calendar at none against Ball Sort Puzzle's 7. Advent Calendar also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Ball Sort Puzzle's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 10 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
