Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Roblox at 20M against Hovercraft's 4.2K. Roblox also leads on chart position (#1 vs unranked). Hovercraft's advantage is review sentiment (82% vs 60%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Roblox sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Hovercraft sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Roblox against 4.6 for Hovercraft. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 20M ratings behind it against 4.2K, 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 82% of Hovercraft's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Roblox ships an update weekly, Hovercraft every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
