Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: GUCCI at 4.0 against IMAX's 2.3. GUCCI also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (62% vs 34%). IMAX's advantage is iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GUCCI sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and IMAX sells 19 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
