Verdict
The clearest difference is price: A Little War at Free against Castle Raid 2's $1.99. A Little War also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 61 months) and ratings volume (11K vs 402). Castle Raid 2's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
