Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Prison Tower at 4.5 against LavaJumper's 1.0. Prison Tower also leads on ratings volume (14 vs 1) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 9 months). LavaJumper's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 13.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
