Verdict
Skyward and Perfect Tower both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 82% of Skyward's written reviews are positive against 34% of Perfect Tower's. Skyward also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks). Perfect Tower's advantage is ratings volume (20K vs 3.7K). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
