Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Catabomber at Free against PathPix Boo's $0.99. Catabomber also leads on update cadence (every 7 months vs every 22 months). PathPix Boo's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
