# Roblox vs Level Maker

The clearest difference is rating: Roblox at 4.5 against Level Maker's 3.6. Roblox also leads on ratings volume (20M vs 90) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Level Maker's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Roblox sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Level Maker sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Roblox holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 20M ratings behind it against 90, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 60% of Roblox's written reviews are positive against 54% of Level Maker's.

Roblox ships an update weekly, Level Maker every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
