Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Colors Seek at none against 2048's 10. Colors Seek also leads on ads (none vs shown). 2048's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
