Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Imperial Dreams at none against Tiny Crawler's 1. Imperial Dreams also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Tiny Crawler's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
