Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Shadow Heist Simulator at none against Cyber Mech's 1. Shadow Heist Simulator also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). Cyber Mech's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
