Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Crossword Puzzle 3D at none against Vending Sort's shown. Crossword Puzzle 3D also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Vending Sort's advantage is ratings volume (9K vs 668) and review sentiment (22% vs 14%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
