Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Star Blasters at none against Fire Burst!'s 1. Star Blasters also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs monthly). Fire Burst!'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
