Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Mystery Spot sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Sherlock Holmes:Hidden Objects sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Mystery Spot holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mystery Spot has 2.3K ratings behind it against 40, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Mystery Spot's written reviews are positive against 71% of Sherlock Holmes:Hidden Objects's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Mystery Spot ships an update every 7 months, Sherlock Holmes:Hidden Objects every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
