Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Moonlight phase at 4.8 against MoonWalk's 1.0. Moonlight phase also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (26 vs 1). MoonWalk's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
