# Hocus Puzzle vs Jumpy Wall

The clearest difference is ads: Jumpy Wall at none against Hocus Puzzle's shown. Jumpy Wall also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Hocus Puzzle's advantage is ratings volume (42 vs 8). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hocus Puzzle sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Jumpy Wall sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Jumpy Wall holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hocus Puzzle has 42 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 93% of Hocus Puzzle's written reviews are positive against 100% of Jumpy Wall's.

Hocus Puzzle ships an update fortnightly, Jumpy Wall every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
