Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Idle Gorilla at none against Roblox's 16. Idle Gorilla also leads on review sentiment (70% vs 60%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 14.0). Roblox's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Roblox against 4.6 for Idle Gorilla.
