Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AstroPulse at none against Spaceland's 4. AstroPulse also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 5 days) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Spaceland's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
