Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Fun Four in a Line at none against THUMB's 2. Fun Four in a Line also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). THUMB's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
