Both are free to download. Bead Tower sells 18 one-off in-app purchases. Sand Roller 3D asks for nothing beyond the download.
Bead Tower holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bead Tower has 1.4K ratings behind it against 93, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Sand Roller 3D's written reviews are positive against 11% of Bead Tower's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Sand Roller 3D ships an update weekly, Bead Tower every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
