After a crash landing on planet Cowa-426, our brave hero discovered that the only way to get home was through the power of flatulence. Help him collect scrap metal to build powerful space suits. Careful though! The journey through space isn’t exactly a piece of cake (or cut of cheese…)! Watch out for space cows, asteroids, and other silent but deadly perils of the universe.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Glou at 5.0 against Space Max's 4.0. Glou also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 74%). Space Max's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (20 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Space Max sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Glou sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Glou holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Space Max has 20 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 74% of Space Max's written reviews are positive against 100% of Glou's.
