Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Wavelength at 4.9 against Sudoku's 3.0. Wavelength also leads on ratings volume (61K vs 1) and chart position (#33 vs unranked). Sudoku's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 17) and update cadence (daily vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
