Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Polygon Wars at every 10 days against Gamma Fighter's every 6 months. Polygon Wars also leads on ratings volume (9 vs 1). Gamma Fighter's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
