# Roblox vs Stranded Hunt 2

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Stranded Hunt 2 at 100% against Roblox's 60%. Stranded Hunt 2 also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 16) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). Roblox's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence 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. Stranded Hunt 2 asks for nothing beyond the download.

Roblox holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roblox has 20M ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Roblox's written reviews are positive against 100% of Stranded Hunt 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Roblox ships an update weekly, Stranded Hunt 2 every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and July 6, 2026 respectively.
