# Blocky Hockey vs Dangleverse

The clearest difference is ads: Dangleverse at none against Blocky Hockey's shown. Dangleverse also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 5 months). Blocky Hockey's advantage is review sentiment (63% vs 40%) and ratings volume (917 vs 118). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Blocky Hockey sells 18 one-off in-app purchases and Dangleverse sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for Blocky Hockey against 4.2 for Dangleverse. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Blocky Hockey has 917 ratings behind it against 118, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 63% of Blocky Hockey's written reviews are positive against 40% of Dangleverse's.

Blocky Hockey ships an update every 5 months, Dangleverse weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
