Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: LEGO® Tower at 4.7 against iCess's 2.3. LEGO® Tower also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 29 months) and ratings volume (27K vs 20). iCess's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 9) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
