Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Air Wings® at none against Breakneck's shown. Air Wings® also leads on update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). Breakneck's advantage is review sentiment (79% vs 70%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
