Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Space Place at 5.0 against X's 4.6. Space Place also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). X's advantage is ratings volume (14 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
