Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Deconstructor at none against Mortar Defense's shown. Deconstructor also leads on review sentiment (44% vs 19%) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 13.0). Mortar Defense's advantage is rating (4.1 vs 3.8) and ratings volume (244 vs 46). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Deconstructor sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Mortar Defense sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Mortar Defense holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mortar Defense has 244 ratings behind it against 46, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of Deconstructor's written reviews are positive against 19% of Mortar Defense's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. Both last shipped on October 23, 2026.
