Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Idle evolution at Free against Laser Dolphin's $2.99. Idle evolution also leads on ratings volume (5.9K vs 11) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). Laser Dolphin's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.

Idle evolution is free to download; Laser Dolphin costs $2.99 up front. Idle evolution sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Laser Dolphin asks for nothing beyond the download.
Idle evolution holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Idle evolution has 5.9K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of Laser Dolphin's written reviews are positive against 75% of Idle evolution's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
