The clearest difference is rating: Elyon at 2.1 against GleeStream's 1.4. Elyon also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and chart position (#141 vs unranked). GleeStream's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GleeStream sells 27 in-app purchases, starting at $6.90 per 7 days and Elyon sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
