Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Tread Shred at Free against Shell Shockers's $0.29. Tread Shred also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 33 months). Shell Shockers's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
