The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Space Rocket Exploration at none against Rocket Crane's 6. Space Rocket Exploration also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 37 months) and ratings volume (313 vs 41). Rocket Crane's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.0 vs 3.7). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
