Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Robot Fly at 5.0 against Monster Dash's 4.4. Robot Fly also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Monster Dash's advantage is ratings volume (2.1K vs 2) and review sentiment (62% vs 50%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Robot Fly holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Monster Dash has 2.1K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Monster Dash's written reviews are positive against 50% of Robot Fly's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Monster Dash ships an update every 3 weeks, Robot Fly weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
