Launching a rocket is not an easy job. It must be done with perfect accuracy or consequences could be fatal. This requires tons of mathematical calculations... in real life. But in this game, you just need to tap the buttons in the right order and at a good angle so your rocket can be launched into the orbit safely. You can steer the rocket a bit by turning your device to the sides which may save you a few launch attempts. Good launching! ;)

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Rocket Launcher at 56% against Build Your Rocket's 0%. Rocket Launcher also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Build Your Rocket's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 3.9) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
