Break Bricks holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Break Bricks has 68K ratings behind it against 43, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Breaking the Bricks's written reviews are positive against 17% of Break Bricks's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
