Quantum 3 is an educational match-3 game for all ages where fun meets quantum physics! Build subatomic particles, learn about the mysteries of fundamental physics and deploy antimatter to clear the way! You'll match and swap quarks to make (and learn about) the baryons you need for each objective. Puzzle out the quantum properties of color, flavor and spin. So get in there and start your quantum-venture! Quantum 3 is puzzle-matching at its finest and a great intro to the world of particle physics! The game is free-to-play with no in-app purchases. The game is developed at Michigan State University by the Games for Entertainment and Learning Lab and is funded under grant PHY 1653405 by the National Science Foundation.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find the optimal structure of the protein complex using the information provided. Each puzzle includes individual proteins (tiny parts of cells and the puzzle pieces) and different experimental data that serve as guard rails to form the ideal arrangement of the pieces. The more experimental data you satisfy, the higher score, and the closer you are to solving the puzzle and becoming a scientist!

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: SuperStruct at every 3 weeks against Quantum 3's every 16 months. Quantum 3's advantage is ratings volume (15 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Quantum 3 against 5.0 for SuperStruct. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Quantum 3 has 15 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Quantum 3 ships an update every 16 months, SuperStruct every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
