# Ideology Rush vs Sudoku

The clearest difference is rating: Sudoku at 5.0 against Ideology Rush's 4.5. Sudoku also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs monthly). Ideology Rush's advantage is ratings volume (1.8K vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ideology Rush sells 16 one-off in-app purchases and Sudoku sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sudoku holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ideology Rush has 1.8K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Ideology Rush ships an update monthly, Sudoku every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
