Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Subway® at weekly against Sea Empress's every 38 months. Subway® also leads on chart position (#15 vs unranked). Sea Empress's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
