Verdict
The clearest difference is price: iSniper 3D at Free against Tractor Beam's $0.99. iSniper 3D also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (1.5K vs 6). Tractor Beam's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 3.4) and in-app purchases (none vs 4). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
