Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 4U Blocks at none against Magic Merge's 10. 4U Blocks also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Magic Merge's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
