Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: 3D Factory at 3 against 3DCellForge's 1. On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 3D Factory sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and 3DCellForge sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
