# Mega Merge vs Sorting Cube Jam

The clearest difference is rating: Sorting Cube Jam at 4.8 against Mega Merge's 3.0. Sorting Cube Jam also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (611 vs 22). Mega Merge's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 25%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mega Merge sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Sorting Cube Jam sells 15 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sorting Cube Jam holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sorting Cube Jam has 611 ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Mega Merge's written reviews are positive against 25% of Sorting Cube Jam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Mega Merge ships an update every 6 weeks, Sorting Cube Jam every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 16, 2026 respectively.
