# Piano Tiles ™ vs Block Blast！

The clearest difference is rating: Block Blast！ at 4.9 against Piano Tiles ™'s 4.3. Block Blast！ also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (2.8M vs 9.9K). Piano Tiles ™'s advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Piano Tiles ™ sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Block Blast！ sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Block Blast！ holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Block Blast！ has 2.8M ratings behind it against 9.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Piano Tiles ™'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.

Piano Tiles ™ ships an update every 3 weeks, Block Blast！ every 3 days. Both last shipped on November 10, 2026.
