Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ascending Blocks at none against ○×'s 2. Ascending Blocks also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 13 months). ○×'s advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
