Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Shoot Bubbles at none against Brain Reactor's 1. Shoot Bubbles also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). Brain Reactor's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
