Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Cyber Cube at none against Cooped Up's 1. Cyber Cube also leads on ads (none vs shown). Cooped Up's advantage is update cadence (every 17 months vs every 73 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
