Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Magic Universe at none against Clockmaker's shown. Clockmaker's advantage is ratings volume (185K vs 548) and review sentiment (43% vs 27%). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clockmaker sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and Magic Universe sells 16 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
