Make your keyboard a Sci-Fi input panel. Have fun typing with the style and sounds you love. Includes: • 20 preset themes • 81 background images (or use your own photos) • 44 animated GIF backgrounds • 50 key styles (or blank) • 35 fonts + default • Set 6 typing sounds (160 to choose from) • 50+ Languages/keyboard layouts (Asian writing languages are incomplete) • Lots of DIY tools and options to change the colors, height, vibration, popup, suggestions, and more. Some of the Sci-Fi styles are loosely modeled after popular sci-fi shows and movies. To parody how the sci-fi designers thought future displays would look while displaying meaningless information and having indecipherable use, I gave them actual function that makes sense. *These are generic images.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Voxel Max at 4.8 against Sci's 3.7. Voxel Max also leads on ratings volume (40 vs 9) and chart position (#14 vs #55). Sci's advantage is price ($3.99 vs $9.99). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Voxel Max costs $9.99 and Sci $3.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Voxel Max holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 40 and 9 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Voxel Max's written reviews are positive against 83% of Sci's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
