# Candy Collapse vs Puzzle Sweets

The clearest difference is rating: Puzzle Sweets at 5.0 against Candy Collapse's 3.5. Puzzle Sweets also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 29 months). Candy Collapse's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (15 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Candy Collapse sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Puzzle Sweets sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Puzzle Sweets holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Candy Collapse has 15 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Candy Collapse ships an update every 29 months, Puzzle Sweets every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
