Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Spidget! at 5.0 against Idle Universe's 4.3. Spidget! also leads on ads (none vs shown). Idle Universe's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 33 months) and ratings volume (1.5K vs 3). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
