Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Word Master at 4.9 against WordStorm's 4.1. Word Master also leads on review sentiment (86% vs 61%) and ratings volume (4K vs 30). WordStorm's advantage is price ($3.99 vs $4.99) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and chart position there is nothing between them.
