Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Square Siege at none against Light's shown. Square Siege also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Light's advantage is update cadence (every 4 months vs every 49 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
