Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Block Puzzle Star Plus at 4.5 against PopStar!'s 3.8. Block Puzzle Star Plus also leads on ratings volume (4.3K vs 31). PopStar!'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Block Puzzle Star Plus holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Block Puzzle Star Plus has 4.3K ratings behind it against 31, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of PopStar!'s written reviews are positive against 71% of Block Puzzle Star Plus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

PopStar! ships an update monthly, Block Puzzle Star Plus every 2 months. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
