Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Codebreaker* at none against Color Code Breaker's 1. Codebreaker* also leads on ads (none vs shown).

Both are free to download. Color Code Breaker sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Codebreaker* asks for nothing beyond the download.
Color Code Breaker holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Color Code Breaker has 2.3K ratings behind it against 67, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 66% of Color Code Breaker's written reviews are positive against 68% of Codebreaker*'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and July 6, 2026 respectively.
