Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tower Thrower at none against Backgammon Classic Board Live's 1. Tower Thrower also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18). Backgammon Classic Board Live's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 3 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
