Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Wheel Shift at none against The Dark Path's 9. Wheel Shift also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (203 vs 1). The Dark Path's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
