Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Category Match! at none against Puzzles Mix's 2. Category Match! also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 6 weeks). Puzzles Mix's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
