Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Blockatraz at none against Minesweep+'s 1. Blockatraz also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 14.0). Minesweep+'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 10 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
