Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bubble Merge at none against Siege Wars's 10. Bubble Merge also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks). Siege Wars's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (5.1.1 vs 15.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
