# Roblox vs Bricker

The clearest difference is ads: Roblox at none against Bricker's shown. Roblox also leads on ratings volume (20M vs 1.4K) and update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). Bricker's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.5) and review sentiment (85% vs 60%). 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 Bricker sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bricker holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 20M ratings behind it against 1.4K, 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 85% of Bricker's.

Roblox ships an update weekly, Bricker every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
