Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Saily Seas at 4.7 against Stack Islands's 2.5. Saily Seas also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 2). Stack Islands's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Saily Seas holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Saily Seas has 1.1K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 81% and 80% positive.
