Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Sonic Forces at Free against TowerMiner's $0.49. Sonic Forces also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks) and chart position (#143 vs unranked). TowerMiner's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.
