Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Time Jump at none against MeltLand's shown. Time Jump also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). MeltLand's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 20 months) and rating (4.5 vs 4.1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
