Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Rocket Sky! at 4.5 against S.S.S's 4.0. Rocket Sky! also leads on ratings volume (109K vs 1). S.S.S's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
