# Roblox vs Marble Slide

The clearest difference is rating: Marble Slide at 5.0 against Roblox's 4.5. Marble Slide also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 16). Roblox's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 37 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Roblox sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Marble Slide asks for nothing beyond the download.

Marble Slide holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 20M ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Roblox's written reviews are positive against 33% of Marble Slide's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Roblox ships an update weekly, Marble Slide every 37 months. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
