ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pyramid by Staple Games holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pyramid by Staple Games has 4.4K ratings behind it against 86, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of Solitaire 3D Lite's written reviews are positive against 75% of Pyramid by Staple Games's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Solitaire 3D Lite ships an update every 2 months, Pyramid by Staple Games every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
