# Roblox vs Block Blast 3D

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Block Blast 3D at none against Roblox's 4. Block Blast 3D also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 14.0). Roblox's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (21M vs 105). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Roblox sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Block Blast 3D asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Roblox against 4.5 for Block Blast 3D. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 21M ratings behind it against 105, 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 50% of Block Blast 3D's.
