Read full descriptionHide full description
Ace Tower is a strategic card puzzle that is easy to learn and hard to master. Every floor is a small board of cards laid out in rows. Drag one card onto another to swap them. Any two cards, any rows. Each row scores as a combo, from a simple PAIR all the way up to an ACE RUN. Find the right swaps, reach the stars, and chase MAX, the perfect score of the floor. CLIMB THE TOWER 100 hand-crafted floors, from gentle first steps to puzzles that will really make you think. Every floor has three stars and one perfect score to beat. MASTER 9 COMBOS PAIR, 2+2, TRIPLE, RUN, SUIT, 3+2, FOUR, SUIT RUN and ACE RUN. Stronger combos and higher cards earn more points. A NEW CHALLENGE EVERY DAY Three fresh boards every day, the same for every player. Reach MAX in the fewest swaps and climb the daily leaderboard. Keep your daily streak alive. DUEL IN THE ARENA Play the same board as another player, at your own pace. Best score wins. Climb the leagues from Bronze to Diamond. HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT Stuck on a floor? Light up the row to work on, see the next swap, or watch the full solution. A PURE PUZZLE GAME Ace Tower is a skill puzzle. There is no gambling, no betting, no real-money play and no cash prizes.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Word IQ at none against Ace Tower Card Puzzle's 5. Word IQ also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.2 vs 15.0). Ace Tower Card Puzzle's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
