Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Moonwalk at Free against StarCat's $1.99. Moonwalk also leads on rating (4.6 vs 1.0) and ratings volume (17 vs 1). StarCat's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 5 months) and chart position (#107 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
