Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Grumpy Snowmen at none against Aqua Drift's shown. Grumpy Snowmen also leads on iOS requirement (7.1 vs 12.0). Aqua Drift's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
