Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: 2048 at 4.7 against 2048's 4.2. 2048 also leads on ratings volume (1.3K vs 15) and chart position (#190 vs unranked). 2048's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

2048 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 2048 has 1.3K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of 2048's written reviews are positive against 80% of 2048's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
