Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Luna Controller holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Luna Controller has 7.5K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of Luna Controller's written reviews are positive against 40% of Ravensburger Professor kNOW!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
