Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mahjong Epic at 93% against Unblock's 45%. Mahjong Epic also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (12K vs 18). Unblock's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
