Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Fubuki at none against Gridular's 10. Fubuki also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Gridular's advantage is update cadence (every 4 months vs every 52 months) and ratings volume (594 vs 1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Fubuki holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gridular has 594 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Fubuki's written reviews are positive against 90% of Gridular's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Fubuki ships an update every 52 months, Gridular every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
