Bowling Puzzle 2 also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). iShuffle Bowling 2's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and review sentiment (87% vs 60%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Bowling Puzzle 2 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iShuffle Bowling 2 has 1.5K ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of iShuffle Bowling 2's written reviews are positive against 60% of Bowling Puzzle 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

iShuffle Bowling 2 ships an update every 3 weeks, Bowling Puzzle 2 every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
