"Spinblox rules - It is so addictive and priced reasonably. You need to at least give this game a chance!!!" - SCW9 "Good game - Hours of entertainment. Worth every penny." - MT1000 "Wonderful. So Fun. I had played the web app version of this game at it was so much fun. The app version brings new special blocks adding a whole new aspect to the game. Its fun, unique and addictive and you can save your games, a major plus for people playing to pass a few minutes." - freetoremix "Good choice - This is a very addictive game. Good choice even for the price. It's worth it." - Tisha728 "=D - It's addictive! Wayyy better than the online version" - kgom "Worth It - This game is a mix of Bejewled and Tetris..." - ajkubert "Very fun and unique game - I bought Spinblox on a whim today, and I'm glad I did. Spinblox reminds me of tetris (it's very different, but the genre is the same), but it has a lot more depth to it..." - Twxz "Great upgrade - I was a big fan of the beta version, and love the new version as much if not more, the special blocks takes some getting used to, but it's a great way to vary the gameplay." - Roger P. Moore "Addictive game - I love this game. Used to play it all the time online. Great gameplay." - wquintero Spinblox is a fun and exciting classic falling block puzzle game for all ages. Drag three or more same color blocks in a row or a column to activate them. Activated blocks are removed when the next wave drops. Activate a special block by activating a block adjacent to it. Be careful, blocks can be de-activated. The game is over when the blocks reach the top. Good luck!

Remove all fires by using ices, stones, and pipes. Looks easy, but it's tough. [Gameplay] The game will gradually introduce new concepts as you complete more levels. All the rules you'll need to know to finish the game are as followings. [Basic rules] A. Objectives 1. Remove all the fires to complete a level. B. Using Ice 1. Ice is created diagonally below you in the direction that you are facing. 2. Ice created next to another object such as a jar, stone, ice, or wall will "stick" to it and become "secure". Similarly, ice with support from below is also "secure". 3. Ice may be pushed or dropped if the ice is not secured. 4. Ice may not be placed directly above a burning jar although it may be placed one level higher up. [Advanced rules] A. Physics 1. Ice is a "smooth" surface and will slide across the floor until stopped by another object or until they drop down through an opening. 2. A stone is a "rough" surface and will move only 1 space when pushed. Stones pushed on top of ice won't stop until a rough surface is reached. 3. Secure ice or Dana can support infinite weight from above. 4. Ice not attached to walls or other secure objects or are not supported from below will drop down until solid ground is reached. 5. Removing certain ice blocks can cause chain reactions. 6. Once a jar is ignited, it can never be cooled down. 7. Ice directly above a fire will not melt. 8. You may only push blocks with nothing adjacent to them. 2 blocks are needed to form "secure" objects. 9. Pipes can still be entered if you are one level lower than the pipe itself. B. Strategy 1. Ice can be used to form steps to reach higher ledges. 2. Ice "bridges" can be formed to reach other areas. 3. Many levels require you to set up blocks for later use. 4. Not all the blocks or objects provided need to be used. 5. Stacking blocks is a useful tactic. 6. Play it safe by creating blocks before you destroy them. [Obstacles] Here are the obstacles you will encounter in the game. Blocks: Just your regular run of the mill walls. Nothing special. Fires: Remove them with the aid of your wand. Ice: Come in many lengths. Jars: Come in either hot or cold form. Pipes: Come in different shapes and lengths. Stones: Are both indestructible and heat-resistant. All levels are resolvable, so don't think it's impossible when you get stuck. Good luck!

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Spinblox at 90% against Fire & Ice Puzzles's 0%. Spinblox also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 38 months). Fire & Ice Puzzles's advantage is price (Free vs $0.99) and rating (4.3 vs 3.4). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Fire & Ice Puzzles is free to download; Spinblox costs $0.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Fire & Ice Puzzles holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.4.
