Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Solitaire Zen at 90% against Solitaire Superstars's 0%. Solitaire Zen also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 21) and ratings volume (10 vs 2). Solitaire Superstars's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 21 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Solitaire Superstars holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Solitaire Zen has 10 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of Solitaire Zen's written reviews are positive against 0% of Solitaire Superstars's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Solitaire Zen ships an update every 21 months, Solitaire Superstars monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 14, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
