Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: 1D Arcade at 5.0 against Boomber's 3.7. Boomber's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ads (none vs shown). On price, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 1D Arcade sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Boomber asks for nothing beyond the download.
1D Arcade holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of 1D Arcade's written reviews are positive against 67% of Boomber's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
