# Force Escape vs Roll Machine

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Force Escape at 60% against Roll Machine's 21%. Roll Machine's advantage is ratings volume (6.1K vs 99) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Force Escape sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Roll Machine sells 20 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Roll Machine holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roll Machine has 6.1K ratings behind it against 99, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Force Escape's written reviews are positive against 21% of Roll Machine's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Force Escape ships an update fortnightly, Roll Machine every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
