To create a project that is simple in concept and to interest a vast number of children’s audiences, to sell a virtual Gucci bag for more than in the real world – this is all about the Roblox metaverse! This article is about her.
What is Roblox?
Roblox is an online game that is a platform for creating your games. Players just need to create an avatar, and they will be able to navigate through the endless variety of game servers and virtual spaces or create their own. You can customize your character with different clothes and accessories that you can buy on the game’s marketplace. The game uses the Robux currency.
The Roblox game has been around for a very long time, since 2006, and has become popular among kids. Every day on the Internet, you can see a lot of video content on Roblox, incl. series, funny cuts, and remarkable passages of complex maps.
NFTs in the game are in-game items, but their difference from the usual ones is that each is unique and exists in a single copy. And also, it can be sold for real money, not in-game currency.
How to start playing Roblox?
To start the game, we must create an account on the official Roblox website.
After registration, a random avatar is created for you, which you can later change in your profile.
Now it remains only to install the game on your device. Roblox is available on multiple platforms:
Ready! You have everything to start playing. And before you open a huge variety of game cards. To enter them, just select a card in the “Discover” section and press the green button.
Roblox Games
In Roblox, games are the main pastime. There are many modes, genres, thematic maps, and so on. We will talk about some of them:
- Adopt Me! The most popular game in Roblox. The essence is simple: we grow our virtual pet, and we equip the dwelling. And then, this pet can be sold on the marketplace and earn Robux. And you can do this endlessly!
- RP servers. RPG servers have always been very popular in many projects. Roblox is no exception. The RP server is filled with many other players, and your goal is just to live together in this city and play different roles, professions, and the like.
- Parkour. Maps for the passage, where you only need to control the character, have a special place in Roblox. And the more difficult they are, the steeper the success in them. Players compete to see who can get through the map faster or at least get to the end.
The list of games is endless; there is everything in Roblox! Everyone can find what he likes. For example, the following genres can be distinguished:
- Fighting/Shooter/Racing;
- hide and seek;
- Construction;
- Restaurants;
- Story cards;
- Education.
But the most remarkable thing about it is that almost all of them were handcrafted by regular players!
Roblox Ecosystem
The Roblox ecosystem is the external tool of the game. There are 2 main ones:
- Marketplace. A marketplace for players to buy and sell avatar items. And absolutely everything is sold there: from the emotions of your character to entire packs of unique animations that can decorate the gameplay or impress other players.
- Roblox studio. The leading game software that allows you to create game cards. The program has ready-made templates for some mechanics, which makes life easier for creators. Thanks to Roblox Studio, everyone can create something of their own and share it to play alone or with other players!
Roblox is incredibly popular and has over 160 million monthly active players. And the whole secret of the game lies in the players’ simplicity and freedom of action. They created conditions under which users are free to create their own gaming experience using ready-made simple game mechanics. The advantage was that the developers reclassified the game into the metaverse, which gave an additional boost. And now, many brands are considering Roblox to create their virtual spaces!
