Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Copter Blast at 5.0 against GoNinja's 4.5. Copter Blast also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 84%). GoNinja's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (monthly vs every 8 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GoNinja sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Copter Blast sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
