Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Sudoku Premium at 4.4 against Sudoktor's 3.0. Sudoku Premium also leads on review sentiment (89% vs 50%) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 36 months). Sudoktor's advantage is price ($0.99 vs $4.99) and chart position (#192 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
