Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Blocky Raider at none against Serious Scramblers's shown. Blocky Raider also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 11.0). Serious Scramblers's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Blocky Raider sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Serious Scramblers sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Serious Scramblers holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 368 and 224 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Blocky Raider's written reviews are positive against 68% of Serious Scramblers's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Blocky Raider ships an update every 3 weeks, Serious Scramblers every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
