Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Campfire! at none against Merge Blasters's 3. Campfire! also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 3 months). Merge Blasters's advantage is chart position (#63 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
