Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Simple Brick Breaker at none against Smash ►'s 1. Simple Brick Breaker also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 13 months) and ratings volume (210 vs 29). Smash ►'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.3 vs 4.1). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
