Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Swoopy Space at 4.4 against Planet simulation's 3.9. Swoopy Space also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 8 months). Planet simulation's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (165 vs 44). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
