BattleFour starts with classic four-in-a-row, then gives every crowded board a second life. The goal is simple: connect four. The twist is what happens before you get there. Build a 2x2 square to earn a bomb, drop into full columns to shove the stack down, and turn blocked boards into sudden comebacks. It feels familiar on the first move, then keeps finding new ways to surprise you. Features: - A fresh take on four-in-a-row - Earn bombs by building 2x2 squares - Push down full columns to open new lines - Fast local two-player matches - Offline solo play with five difficulties - Trainer practice with hints, mistake review, and undo - Optional Full Trainer unlocks every practice difficulty and the full-strength Trainer Challenge - Stats, achievements, and Game Center leaderboards - Optional visual themes

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: BattleFour at Free against Remote Checkers's $0.99. BattleFour also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 12 months). Remote Checkers's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and device support (3 vs 1). On ads there is nothing between them.
