# Slidey® vs Block Blast！

The clearest difference is ads: Slidey® at none against Block Blast！'s shown. Block Blast！'s advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (2.8M vs 1.7K). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Slidey® sells 10 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.
