# Roblox vs Dino Evolution

The clearest difference is ads: Roblox at none against Dino Evolution's shown. Roblox also leads on ratings volume (20M vs 2.8K) and update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). Dino Evolution's advantage is review sentiment (92% vs 60%) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Roblox sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Dino Evolution sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Dino Evolution holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 20M ratings behind it against 2.8K, 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 92% of Dino Evolution's.

Roblox ships an update weekly, Dino Evolution every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
