Toobz is a challenging, fast-paced game that brings together quick reactions, planning, and a little bit of luck. Your goal is to create a system of "Toobz" (pipes) beginning at a randomly-placed starting point. Your Toobz network must allow water to flow without any spilling. As you advance through levels, you'll have less and less time to place the pieces before the water starts automatically. You can start the water at any time, allowing you to quickly advance to the next level and earn extra points. If you spill any water, though, your game is over and you'll have to try again. Toobz features three game modes: "Classic Toobz" in which only one upcoming piece is displayed, "Show Toobz" game in which the next four pieces are displayed, and the new "Puzzle" game that starts you out with a full board. Along with each game mode is a "Big Board" option which increases the size of the playing area by more than 2x! Multiple color themes are available, including a setting to match your system Dark Mode preference.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: sudo at 5.0 against Toobz's 3.8. sudo also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and chart position (#196 vs unranked). Toobz's advantage is ratings volume (135 vs 3) and price ($0.99 vs $2.99). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
