Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Flaming Core at none against Seashine's 6. Flaming Core also leads on update cadence (weekly vs monthly) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). Seashine's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (4.9K vs 679). On price, rating, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
