# Roblox vs Hide Online

The clearest difference is update cadence: Roblox at every 6 days against Hide Online's every 3 months. Roblox also leads on ratings volume (21M vs 29K) and chart position (#1 vs unranked). Hide Online's advantage is review sentiment (76% vs 60%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Roblox sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Hide Online sells 6 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 4.4 for Hide Online. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 21M ratings behind it against 29K, 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 76% of Hide Online's.

Roblox ships an update every 6 days, Hide Online every 3 months. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
