ROBLOX Guide

Welcome to ROBLOX, an online virtual playground and workshop where kids of all ages can safely interact, create, have fun and learn.

What is ROBLOX?

ROBLOX is unique among kid-targeted sites in that everything in the world is designed and constructed by individual members of the ROBLOX community. Every member is granted a place along with an infinite supply of ROBLOX building pieces. Members design and build anything imagined — be it a navigable skyscraper, a working helicopter, a giant pinball machine, a multiplayer "Capture the Flag" game or some other, yet-to-be-dreamed-up object or activity.

What can you do in ROBLOX?

ROBLOX members can choose to play and create alone or, with the help of personal and customizable avatars, they can choose to be social and engage with others. Members can explore the world with their avatars, meet and communicate with other members, visit other member-created environments, and collaborate with others on projects.

There are no pre-defined goals in ROBLOX. The focus is largely on creative and open-ended play. However, there are numerous member-created and very popular games — both solo and multiplayer — from head-to-head bobsledding to multiplayer paintball.

Why did we create ROBLOX?

We are passionate about creating meaningful experiences that ignite the imagination and engage the mind.

There are many online sites for kids. However, most of these sites are focused primarily on helping kids socialize and play games. We wanted to build something more — a place that not only satisfies kids' social and entertainment needs but that also satisfies kids' hunger for creativity and learning.

ROBLOX is free to join

Standard membership in ROBLOX is free. This option entitles kids to sign-up for ROBLOX on their own and to participate on a limited basis. Account members are given an avatar and the ability to design, build, and save only a single place.

Games and points

Members are recognized and earn rewards for their level of participation, the quality and popularity of their creations, and for their community spirit. Rewards range from specialty badges, to site-wide promotion of member-created content, to actual ROBLOX currency ("ROBUX") that can be redeemed in the ROBLOX catalog for avatar accessories and premium construction materials.
