# Geometry Dash vs Block Blast！

The clearest difference is price: Block Blast！ at Free against Geometry Dash's $3.99. Block Blast！ also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months) and rating (4.9 vs 4.6). Geometry Dash's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ads (none vs shown). On review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Block Blast！ is free to download; Geometry Dash costs $3.99 up front. Block Blast！ sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Geometry Dash asks for nothing beyond the download.

Block Blast！ holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Block Blast！ has 2.7M ratings behind it against 268K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Geometry Dash's written reviews are positive against 76% of Block Blast！'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Geometry Dash ships an update every 2 months, Block Blast！ every 3 days. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
