Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Jigsaw Puzzles⁺ at none against Sci's shown. Jigsaw Puzzles⁺ also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 26 months) and ratings volume (27K vs 1). Sci's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
