Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Killer Sudoku at none against Sudoku + Auto's 9. Killer Sudoku also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). Sudoku + Auto's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
