Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Battledom at none against Crash Castles's shown. Battledom also leads on ratings volume (164 vs 1). Crash Castles's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
