ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Sudoku holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sudoku (No Limits) has 8.4K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Sudoku (No Limits)'s written reviews are positive against 50% of Sudoku's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Sudoku (No Limits) ships an update every 7 months, Sudoku every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
