Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tower Builder at 100% against Gear Fight!'s 27%. Tower Builder also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs fortnightly). Gear Fight!'s advantage is ratings volume (16K vs 11) and chart position (#129 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
