Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Project Blacksmith at none against Rail Defence's 18. Project Blacksmith also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (20% vs 2%). Rail Defence's advantage is ratings volume (894 vs 116). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
