Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Tankoom at 5.0 against Kick Hero's 4.4. Tankoom also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3). Kick Hero's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (54 vs 3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
