Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Dune at 79% against Tabletopia's 24%. Dune also leads on rating (4.9 vs 2.6) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 months). Tabletopia's advantage is price (Free vs $10.99) and in-app purchases (none vs 3). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
