Goblin Squire

Tutorial = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ba0z2bdBWDw You are a lone Squire left behind as you were too young to go off to battle with the army. Goblins have noticed the village is without an army to defend it and are trying to take full advantage. Use your basic sword fighting skills to keep the goblins from destroying your main building. Don't die and you will be rewarded with coins that can be used to improve your abilities. Use wood to build new buildings to gain more resources. Use stone to build towers to help you in your mission. If you fail, no worries, you can start again and try a different strategy. See how far you can get and see what new creatures emerge from the darkness. Goblin Squire is a mash up between a Roguelike, Strategy, and Tower Defense style game. The joystick to control the Squire is a touch anywhere and drag in the direction you want to go style control. To attack, simply tap the screen. There is an Attack/Defend phase to start. Goblins will come to you and your village to try to take you out and destroy your buildings. Each resource building uses population so make sure you build houses to add more people. Each level you complete will gain you coins that can be used to upgrade the Squire. We have a lot of features we still want to implement so check back for updates. Tutorials, new buildings, more upgrades, UI/UX improvements, more enemy types, more defenses, additional maps, and even more hero types are all planned. The more people that download and play the game, the more dev time we can put towards the game.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Goblin Squire at none against First Knight's 2. Goblin Squire also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). First Knight's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
