Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: a Jumpy at none against Sudoku's 5. a Jumpy also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.1 vs 15.6). Sudoku's advantage is ratings volume (1.7K vs 11) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, update cadence, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
