Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Puzzles & Survival at none against Final Blaster's shown. Puzzles & Survival also leads on chart position (#15 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Final Blaster's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 10 days). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
