Play ONLINE against Game Center opponents or OFFLINE against Thor the Viking. Revenge will be your motive when you play this enhanced game of Kubb (pronounced Koob). Bring out your weapons and man your defenses. Don't let your opponent get the better of you. Reach new levels on the leaderboard. Each level adds new challenges. Your objective is for players standing at their baseline to topple all 5 of the opposing team’s wooden blocks (Kubbs) with an underhanded toss of the 6 wooden Batons and to then topple the King Kubb that is located in the center of the playing field. Beware of the creatures that will try to intercept your baton throws. Avoid the obstacles that block your path. This popular outdoor game can be played by anyone from age 9 to 90. Everyone has an opportunity to win since the game is not over until the last Kubb is knocked down.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Match Symbols at 100% against Koob's 60%. Match Symbols also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 weeks). Koob's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
