Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: •sudoku at every 5 weeks against Sudoku's every 13 months. •sudoku also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 53). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. •sudoku sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Sudoku sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
•sudoku holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: •sudoku has 1.1K ratings behind it against 53, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of •sudoku's written reviews are positive against 97% of Sudoku's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
•sudoku ships an update every 5 weeks, Sudoku every 13 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
