Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Brain Buzz at free against Borderland Arena's freemium. Brain Buzz also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 78%) and rating (4.5 vs 4.3). Borderland Arena's advantage is ratings volume (22 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
