Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Corebound at Free against Star Drifter's $0.99. Corebound also leads on ratings volume (1.2K vs 1). Star Drifter's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ads (none vs shown). On rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
