Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Beat Black at none against Gear Clicker's 14. Beat Black also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Gear Clicker's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and update cadence (weekly vs every 35 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
