Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: The Killbox at none against Forward Assault's shown. The Killbox also leads on review sentiment (90% vs 69%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Forward Assault's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (6.7K vs 173). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
