Read full description

Five Squares. Keep them apart. Five Squares is a one-thumb arcade survival game. Colored squares with googly eyes bounce around a neon arena, and if any two collide, your run is over. That's the whole rule. Keeping it gets harder every minute.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Five Squares at none against Spelling Tree's shown. Spelling Tree's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
