Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Warlands at 4.0 against BTFields's 3.0. Warlands also leads on ratings volume (167 vs 3) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). BTFields's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (79% vs 67%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Warlands sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. BTFields asks for nothing beyond the download.
Warlands holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Warlands has 167 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Warlands's written reviews are positive against 79% of BTFields's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on August 27, 2026 and September 6, 2026 respectively.
