Both are free to download. Subway Surfers sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Rush sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Subway Surfers against 4.6 for Rush. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Subway Surfers has 3.8M ratings behind it against 52K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 87% of Subway Surfers's written reviews are positive against 73% of Rush's.
