Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PapiWall at none against Shooty Skies's 10. PapiWall also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). Shooty Skies's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (5.6K vs 15). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
