Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Reality Augmented (VR) at Free against Blower's $1.99. Reality Augmented (VR) also leads on update cadence (every 4 months vs every 9 months). Blower's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 9) and rating (4.5 vs 4.3). On review sentiment, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
