Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Escavé at none against Sudoku Revolution's shown. Escavé also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). Sudoku Revolution's advantage is ratings volume (33 vs 6) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
