Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Blue Moon Solitaire at none against StareMaster's shown. Blue Moon Solitaire also leads on ratings volume (29 vs 2). StareMaster's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. StareMaster sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Blue Moon Solitaire sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
StareMaster holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Blue Moon Solitaire has 29 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
StareMaster ships an update every 2 days, Blue Moon Solitaire every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
