Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Heroquest at Free against DungeonSquad's $4.99. Heroquest also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 20) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). DungeonSquad's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (610 vs 1). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
