The clearest difference is ads: Tiny Step at none against Spite & Malice!'s shown. Tiny Step also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Spite & Malice!'s advantage is ratings volume (1.7K vs 17) and review sentiment (61% vs 50%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
