Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mystery Math Museum at 97% against Question Sleuth's 67%. Mystery Math Museum also leads on ratings volume (314 vs 2) and update cadence (every 8 months vs every 29 months). Question Sleuth's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and price ($1.99 vs $3.99). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Question Sleuth holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mystery Math Museum has 314 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Question Sleuth's written reviews are positive against 97% of Mystery Math Museum's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Question Sleuth ships an update every 29 months, Mystery Math Museum every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
