Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Spooktober at none against Super Pump's 1. Spooktober also leads on ratings volume (6 vs 1). Super Pump's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.
