Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Mini Chess 5x4 at none against Knight Combat 2D's shown. Mini Chess 5x4 also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Knight Combat 2D's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
