Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Sniper Monkey at 100% against Go Ape Ship!'s 54%. Sniper Monkey also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.0). Go Ape Ship!'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
