Crystal Crush is a match 3 jewel puzzle game set in a night sky full of crystals. Swap two neighbouring gems to line up three or more of the same kind. Every gem has its own colour and its own shape, so each one is easy to tell apart. How it plays: • 10,000 levels on a winding world map, starting with 30 guided levels that introduce one idea at a time • Match 4 in a row for a striped gem, make an L or T shape for a glow gem, and line up 5 for a prism orb • Swap two special gems together for a bigger blast • Break ice blocks and chains, wipe away jelly, and let gems fall past stones • Hammer, Shuffle, +5 Moves and Color Eraser boosters, bought with coins you earn by playing • A 30-day daily reward calendar • Settings for music, sound effects, vibration and reduced motion Good to know: • Free to play with ads: a banner on the level map, an ad now and then between levels, and optional ads you can choose to watch for 5 extra moves or an extra life. • No in-app purchases. • Lives refill over time: one every 30 minutes, up to 5. Crystal Crush is made by ATHRYZA Technologies. Available in 11 languages.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: BugsCrush at none against Crystal Crush's shown. BugsCrush also leads on iOS requirement (9.3 vs 15.0). Crystal Crush's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 39 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
