The tug-of-war between Block Blast! and Roblox took another turn in July — and this time, Roblox came out swinging.
On iOS, Block Blast! still held the crown with 8M downloads, but Roblox closed the gap with 6M. Over on Google Play, however, Roblox dominated with 16M downloads, its best showing since early spring, and enough to claim the top spot in the combined ranking with 23M — up from 17M in June.
Block Blast! still had a strong month, reaching 19M combined downloads (up 1M from June) to hold #2 overall, while Subway Surfers maintained its perpetual momentum at #3 with 18M.
The big surprise? Tile Explorer from Oakever Games debuted at #5 overall with 12M combined downloads, knocking Pizza Ready! into a tie for that same total. Meanwhile, Vita Mahjong climbed to #6 overall, building on its steady growth from the past two months.
Lower in the top 10, Talking Tom Friends 2 is already in the top 10 after launching in July, and joins other familiar names like Ludo King, Moto Race Go, and Royal Kingdom.
The combined top 10 pulled in 124M downloads for July, up slightly by 6% from June, marking another month of steady growth for mobile game installs worldwide.
