Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sudoku Trials at none against Rune Sweeper's 1. Sudoku Trials also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). Rune Sweeper's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
