Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SkyPile at none against Boba Run's 2. SkyPile also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 4 weeks). Boba Run's advantage is ratings volume (146 vs 19). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
