# Block Puzzle vs Block Blast！

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Block Puzzle at none against Block Blast！'s 3. Block Puzzle also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (94% vs 76%). Block Blast！'s advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (2.7M vs 266). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Block Blast！ sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Block Puzzle asks for nothing beyond the download.

Block Blast！ holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Block Blast！ has 2.7M ratings behind it against 266, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 94% of Block Puzzle's written reviews are positive against 76% of Block Blast！'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Block Puzzle ships an update every 3 weeks, Block Blast！ every 3 days. Both last shipped on September 25, 2026.
