![]() ![]() blatant knock-offs of popular video game, anime, and TV/film properties. Let's face it: Roblox is a little bit infamous for hosting fan games that are, well. Gameplay-wise it's a case of evading various monsters as you unlock exits, with the eventual aim of (you guessed it) fleeing the creepy research facility! It's a bit of a greatest-hits trip through all the biggest horror game tropes of the past few years, and has obviously been designed with a lot of love for the genre. But there's also a certain Evil Dead-slash-Friday the Thirteenth vibe to some of the newer maps, which include a spooky summer camp theme, alongside an ambitious airport-themed update. The overall vibe of Flee the Facility will be familiar to anyone who's sunk way too many hours into the SCP Wiki and its accompanying fan games. It's a genuinely engaging experience that can give Among Us a run for its money in terms of tense social stand-offs and unexpected moments of hilarity.įor a platform aimed primarily at pre-teens, Roblox has a surprisingly good line in genuinely creepy horror games, such as Flee the Facility by A.W. There are a lot of games of this type doing the rounds these days, but Murder Mystery 2 has been at it for a long time, and this pedigree shows. The Murderer aims to eliminate Innocents and evade the Sheriff the Sheriff aims to take down the Murderer and up to ten Innocents try to evade the Murderer and aid the Sheriff. Each round players are secretly assigned a role: either Murderer, Sheriff, or Innocent. Its recent resurgence in popularity is probably at least in part down to the social deduction trend brought on by the recent Among Us renaissance.įans of social deduction games will be familiar with the basic concept. ![]() ![]() No discussion of the best games on Roblox would be complete without mention of Murder Mystery 2 by It's been around since 2014 and is one of the older games on the platform that's still actively supported. And, naturally, you can also get an adorable pet to follow you around. Do an honest day's work for an honest day's pay and at the end of it your character can go home and upgrade their house with nicer furniture and other personalised improvements. You'll need to work together to keep the place running smoothly and make your customers happy. This is a classic social sim with one key difference: instead of choosing your character's job, you and other players in the server roleplay as a group of colleagues who work at the titular pizza place. Work at a Pizza Place by is the definition of an old favourite, never straying far from Roblox's most-played list. It's been around since 2008 and is nearly as old as Roblox itself - no mean feat on a platform that's changed almost beyond recognition in its 16-year lifespan. Other big-name crossovers have included a Scooby-Doo event, and if that's not proof that this game has serious credentials, I don't know what is. ![]() At this point the roster of pets has expanded far beyond the cute mainstream of dogs and cats, and you can now adopt almost any animal your heart desires - up to and including sea creatures as part of the game's partnership with the Whale and Dolphin Conservation charity. Though it's aimed at a slightly younger audience than most games on the platform, it's understandable if older players want to see what all the fuss is about - not to mention that, due to the heavy emphasis on microtransactions, parents may want to vet this title (pun intended) before their kids play.Īdopt Me! is a roleplaying game ostensibly about parents and their adopted children, but the real focus of the game these days is on collectible pets. You'd be hard-pressed to argue that Adopt Me! by DreamCraft isn't a contender for the single biggest game on Roblox. However, this doughty experience by is an enduring favourite, not to mention a Roblox classic by this point and it seemed a shame to leave it unmentioned for the sake of a one-time cost of only 25 Robux (about 28p, although the current minimum currency bundle purchase is £4.49 for 400 Robux). Welcome to Bloxburg is the only game on this list that requires pre-purchase, and in fact we didn't even include it on last year's list because we were focussing exclusively on free-to-play Roblox experiences. And with server sizes capped at 12 players, this is a good experience for dipping a toe into the social side of Roblox without getting overwhelmed. Explore Bloxburg with your Roblox avatar, build and decorate your dream home, find your character a job, or just chill out and enjoy the scenery. This town-and-city themed sandbox social sim has been around since 2014 and has absolutely nailed the no-goal-orientation formula. The name Welcome to Bloxburg sets an appropriate tone: this is a really good starting point if you're brand-new to Roblox. ![]()
