Both are free to download. AnimCreate sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per year. Axiom Solver asks for nothing beyond the download.
Axiom Solver holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Axiom Solver's written reviews are positive against 60% of AnimCreate's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
