Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Super Mega Sudoku at 5.0 against Deep Green's 3.9. Super Mega Sudoku also leads on monetization model (free vs paid) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 16.4). Deep Green's advantage is update cadence (every 4 months vs every 18 months) and ratings volume (76 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Super Mega Sudoku holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Deep Green has 76 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Super Mega Sudoku's written reviews are positive against 66% of Deep Green's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Super Mega Sudoku ships an update every 18 months, Deep Green every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
