# Roblox vs Pro Builder 3D

Roblox and Pro Builder 3D both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 60% of Roblox's written reviews are positive against 21% of Pro Builder 3D's. Roblox also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (20M vs 8K). Pro Builder 3D's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Roblox sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Pro Builder 3D sells 3 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 4.6 for Pro Builder 3D. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 20M ratings behind it against 8K, 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 21% of Pro Builder 3D's.

Roblox ships an update weekly, Pro Builder 3D every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
