Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: HoverBots Assembly Instruction at none against Monstercraft Simulator's shown. Monstercraft Simulator's advantage is update cadence (every 10 months vs every 37 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
