Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Flow Particles at none against Powder Game's shown. Flow Particles also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and review sentiment (100% vs 85%). Powder Game's advantage is ratings volume (2.2K vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
