Complete every region with 1–N, with no matching neighbors.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: iPuzzleSolver Lite at none against Color Sudoku's 5. iPuzzleSolver Lite also leads on ads (none vs shown). Color Sudoku's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 4 months). On price, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
