# Jigsaw Puzzle HD® vs Jigsaw Wizard

Jigsaw Puzzle HD® and Jigsaw Wizard both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 91% of Jigsaw Wizard's written reviews are positive against 73% of Jigsaw Puzzle HD®'s. Jigsaw Puzzle HD®'s advantage is ratings volume (45K vs 4.8K). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Jigsaw Puzzle HD® sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Jigsaw Wizard sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Jigsaw Puzzle HD® holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Jigsaw Puzzle HD® has 45K ratings behind it against 4.8K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Jigsaw Puzzle HD®'s written reviews are positive against 91% of Jigsaw Wizard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
