Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Smash Fest! at 71% against Fish Sort Puzzle's 27%. Smash Fest! also leads on ratings volume (557K vs 17K). Fish Sort Puzzle's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (4.9 vs 4.7). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Fish Sort Puzzle holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smash Fest! has 557K ratings behind it against 17K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Smash Fest!'s written reviews are positive against 27% of Fish Sort Puzzle's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Smash Fest! ships an update every 8 days, Fish Sort Puzzle fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 23, 2026.
