Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Word Blitz ・ at 4.7 against Ruzzle's 4.2. Word Blitz ・ also leads on ratings volume (45K vs 7.9K). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads 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. Ruzzle sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Word Blitz ・ sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Word Blitz ・ holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Word Blitz ・ has 45K ratings behind it against 7.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Ruzzle's written reviews are positive against 39% of Word Blitz ・'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Ruzzle ships an update every 6 weeks, Word Blitz ・ every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
