# Roblox vs Super Pixel Heroes

The clearest difference is ads: Roblox at none against Super Pixel Heroes's shown. Roblox also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (20M vs 1K). Super Pixel Heroes's advantage is review sentiment (78% vs 60%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Roblox sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Super Pixel Heroes sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Roblox against 4.6 for Super Pixel Heroes. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 20M ratings behind it against 1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 60% of Roblox's written reviews are positive against 78% of Super Pixel Heroes's.

Roblox ships an update weekly, Super Pixel Heroes every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 15, 2026 respectively.
