Can you hit the items with the legendary ninja weapon called shuriken? Train in the ancient ninjas’ dojos and tear the items as fast as you can! There is even the sakura stage to sharpen your listening skills. It is a game based on the famous Japanese game called “Karuta”. All MDS ESL games and apps are designed not to be addictive to kids because we believe that despite the usage of technology is necessary kids are supposed to spend the least time on screens possible and interact more with the real world.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ninja Karuta at none against Magic Cube Puzzle 3D's 1. Ninja Karuta also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). Magic Cube Puzzle 3D's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 10 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
