Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Melon at 138K against Building Destruction's 1.6K. Melon also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.2) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). Building Destruction's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Melon sells 26 in-app purchases, starting at $3.49 per 7 days and Building Destruction sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Melon holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Melon has 138K ratings behind it against 1.6K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 77% of Melon's written reviews are positive against 74% of Building Destruction's.
Melon ships an update weekly, Building Destruction fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
