Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Bus at Free against Space Wave Race's $2.99. Bus also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 92%). Space Wave Race's advantage is ratings volume (93 vs 3) and update cadence (every 8 months vs every 28 months). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
