Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sudoku 9x9 ! at none against Sloomy's 1. Sudoku 9x9 ! also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Sloomy's advantage is review sentiment (88% vs 54%) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Sudoku 9x9 ! holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sloomy has 47 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Sudoku 9x9 !'s written reviews are positive against 88% of Sloomy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Sudoku 9x9 ! ships an update every 4 months, Sloomy every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on August 13, 2026 and September 7, 2026 respectively.
