The Average game is a game of numbers somewhat inspired by one of the games from the Netflix-series "Alice in borderland". The goal of the game is to pick a number as close to the average of the sum of all the players picked numbers as possible. If you get closest to the average you will earn a point. If you are not the closest you will lose a life. You get 100 lives at the start of the game. When all 100 lives are gone the score will be reset and you have to start over. Keep earning points by winning and get extra lives by keeping a winning streak. Your highest score will automatically be submitted to the leaderboards if you chose to play the online mode. Seems easy enough, yes? However, you cannot pick any number you want every turn. Each turn the rules for which numbers will be valid changes. Game features: - Somewhat addictive gameplay. - Rules that change each turn. - Game Center support.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: The Average game at none against sugar (game)'s shown. The Average game also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.3). sugar (game)'s advantage is ratings volume (410 vs 5) and review sentiment (82% vs 67%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
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. sugar (game) sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and The Average game sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
The Average game holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: sugar (game) has 410 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of sugar (game)'s written reviews are positive against 67% of The Average game's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
