Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tiny Tinker at none against Dad Games's 1. Tiny Tinker also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). Dad Games's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 24 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
