Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Light'Em Up at none against DOTRIX!'s 1. Light'Em Up also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). DOTRIX!'s advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
