ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cribbage Blitz holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cribbage Blitz has 688 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Cribbage Square Collection's written reviews are positive against 92% of Cribbage Blitz's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Cribbage Square Collection ships an update every 2 months, Cribbage Blitz every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
