Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SnakeArcade at none against Nodes's 3. SnakeArcade also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks). Nodes's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
