Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Blowing Blocks at none against Blockzilla's 1. Blowing Blocks also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 34 months) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.0). Blockzilla's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
