Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Squaring at none against Match Attack's 1. Squaring also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Match Attack's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 19 months) and ratings volume (12 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
