Roblox

Roblox is an online building game where you play with customizable blocks. Fight with rockets, ride trains, destroy skyscrapers, do practically whatever you want. Unlike most other games there aren't any pre-defined goals, you are given blocks and left to do whatever you want.

With your free account, you get a Character and a Place. You can customize your place however you want, and visit anyone else's place as well.

With over 500,000 players, there is plenty of creativity to go around. Every world is user-created, wildly ranging from MMOs, Paintball, Obstical Courses, Adventure maps and many, many more that can't fall into anything but their own category.

Code with Lua, the simple and easy-to-learn programming language, you can do practically whatever you cant think up. Several users have created great things, like trains, planes, cars, factories, tanks, police stations, rockets, the list goes on and on.

This game is a completely custom engine with constant updates, no outdated Torque, and no heavy system requirements.

Come on in and join the fun, there is plenty of room for more.

Bottom Line: Stop looking for another online game because this one is GREAT!
I had to review this again because of those Blockland jerks saying this game is crap when it's better than Blockland. They are just Jealous that Roblox has a better community, Better gameplay, A physics engine, More features, And that the creator is making more money than the creator of Blockland.

This game is great. The only bad part is that it's in Beta. It was way more glitchy in the Alpha stage back in 2005, though.

This game has no limits except your imagination and one's scripting skills. The possibilities are endless when a good .Lua scripter hits the scene. So far I have seen a ton of different games, Such as :RPGs, FPSs, Tycoons, And building places.

I swear, this is the best online game I've ever played. Blockland is horrible compared to this game. With this game you can Make your own Torso decals that are visible to everyone unlike in Blockland where the person needs to Download it to see it.

This game offers an optional $5 a month add on subscription which lets you: Sell the Torso Decals you make for Robux or Tickets and you receive the Profit, Get a daily amount of 15 Robux a day, And lets you have 10 Places at the same time.

I suggest you either quit Blockland if you play and switch over to Roblox, Or stop thinking about buying Blockland for $20 and play this better game for free.
