The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Word Evolution at none against Merge! Letters's 1. Word Evolution also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Merge! Letters's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
