Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TowerDefenseTD at none against Paddle Balls's 6. TowerDefenseTD also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Paddle Balls's advantage is ratings volume (14 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
