ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Railbound holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Railbound has 119 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Railbound's written reviews are positive against 100% of SudokuNoBS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
