Need proof? Jailbreak, one of the platform’s most popular games, was built by teenager Alex Balfanz, who paid for his college degree entirely with his Roblox earnings. It really takes user-generated content to a whole new level. That means brands and makers of all ages can earn money if the games they build become popular. A portion of the sales ( about 28 cents per dollar spent) goes back to the game’s creator. Though the platform itself is free, users can make purchases within each experience. Other categories focus more on agility, strategy, or skill. Millennials, think of them like Gen Z’s version of Club Penguin. These are less games and more virtual hangouts. Many of the most popular games on the app, including Adopt Me! And Brookhaven RP, fall into the roleplay category. Users can dabble in games tagged as roleplay, adventure, fighting, obby (obstacle courses), tycoon, simulator, and more. Games on Roblox are officially called “experiences” which fall into a variety of genres. Billing itself as the “ultimate virtual universe,” Roblox experiences are places where users can socialize, build their own spaces, and even earn and spend virtual money. It combines gaming, social media, and social commerce. Roblox is an app that allows users to play a wide variety of games, create games, and chat with others online. Note: don’t let your child play story or horror games, and Make sure your kid is smart enough not to play bad looking games.Get our 2024 Social Trends report, and dig into the juicy data that’ll help you reach your goals in 2024-which is shaping up to be social’s best year yet. Before I end this review, I just wanna say a few games you child can get started with: Also you may notice something called robux, and this is basically an in-game curreńcy that lets you get game passes for games and make your in game character, the downfall with this is the fact that you buy Robux with real money and this could lead to your child spending tons of money just for an avatar. Roblox games can also have groups that are basically where the owner can announce updates and people can talk to each other like the chat, and I would recommend not letting your child visit these in game groups, because people can scam and say you get free moneÿ for clicking a virus. And don’t let your child play random games just because it says nine plus or all ages, because they can have unrealistic blood and sometimes violence, so always make sure the game isn’t bad by clicking on the game scrolling through the description until you see the age rating and what is in the game. I would also recommend going to the parental controls and making it so your child can only play games Nine and older because you probably don’t want your child playing 13 plus games. This is because chat can expose people to profanity (if someone bypasses it) and Rude people, so definitely make sure to turn it off. Simply press the Cog on the top right of your screen and click settings, then go to Privacy and click “who can chat with me?” And turn it to no one. First, you have to create an account, basically just put in your Emáil and create a Username and password and then you can Jump In! You will be greeted with THOUSANDS of user generated experiences and before you let your child dig in, you have to visit the settings first. ROBLOX is lots of things like Exploration, combat, parkour, RolePlay, and SO much more! Now allow me to explain how ROBLOX is like. But the thing is, it’s so creative to the fact that people can make some pretty horrible stuff on it, for example people have made games with EXTREME violence and scary imagery, but before you stop reading this and scream at your child for even asking there is actually ways to avoid the bad and enjoy the good stuff cause after all, it’s not a video game. ROBLOX is a PlatForm about exploration creativity and imagination. This review is not by an adult but please take your time to read it… seriously.
