# Roblox vs Origame

Roblox and Origame both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 60% of Roblox's written reviews are positive against 25% of Origame's. Roblox also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (20M vs 84K). 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 Origame sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. 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 Origame. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 20M ratings behind it against 84K, 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 25% of Origame's.

Roblox ships an update every 6 days, Origame every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 28, 2026.
