# Roblox vs Forensic Master

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Roblox at 60% against Forensic Master's 6%. Roblox also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (20M vs 43K). Forensic Master's advantage is iOS requirement (12.5 vs 14.0). 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 Forensic Master sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Roblox holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 20M ratings behind it against 43K, 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 6% of Forensic Master's.

Roblox ships an update weekly, Forensic Master every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
