# Snake VS Block vs Sqube Darkness

The clearest difference is rating: Sqube Darkness at 4.8 against Snake VS Block's 4.5. Snake VS Block's advantage is ratings volume (599K vs 32K) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Snake VS Block sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Sqube Darkness sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sqube Darkness holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Snake VS Block has 599K ratings behind it against 32K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of Snake VS Block's written reviews are positive against 36% of Sqube Darkness's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Snake VS Block ships an update every 2 weeks, Sqube Darkness every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on October 17, 2026.
