Army Run!'s advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Army Run! sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month and Gun Head Run sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Army Run! holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6.
