Looks like Roblox and Minecraft are doing well.

Huh, I wonder if that Planes VS Planes level is still around.
I used to have a blast on that, flying to the enemy's base with this massive battleship, nosediving it, then jumping out with the parachute and going hog wild.

I have still to this day never even seen a screenshot of Roblox and I have no idea what kind of game it is, compared to Minecraft which I saw everywhere and I'm perfectly aware of what it is despite never playing it myself. And yet Roblox is just as huge. It's kinda funny
It really is crazy to me that more big publishers haven't tried their hands at games similar Minecraft/Roblox. These sorts of games that allow the player to be creative are huge hits for kids.
Wow, really? I didn't know that. I may have to download it and check it out just to see what it's like, I've never played before.
I used to play around 07-9 but there's been a huge shift in the userbase. It's incredibly young. It's now more a children's game unless you want to make money by having a popular game which caters to them.
That's a lot.
But Minecraft is most likely above 100m also at this point.
91 million was a year ago.

There are basically several multiplayer minigames, like Hide'n'Seek or obstacle platformers.
To this day I still have no idea what Roblox is supposed to be. I guess I'll look up some youtube videos.
Another uncle here with both nephew and niece playing this on a daily basis. Didn't know about this game before seeing them play it.
They mostly roleplay, build and farm stuff.

Reminds me of those daycare pbs YouTube channels that you probably don't know exist yet they have music video level views
My kids and step kids play roblox. I hate this game but i understand why its popular.
Its for kids. Its absolutely nothing like minecraft.
Its user made mini games, often imitating already made games. But its really really basic gameplay wise. Most games are just running around avoiding traps, running around killing other players, or really really basic life sim games. Some games are violent but theres no blood. Its the most basic ass braindead boring gamepay i have ever played, but for young kids it is easy to play. My kids sometimes ask me to play a new roblox game with them, and i do, but they mostly play exactly the same as the last minigame. But the kids enjoy it
Mostly kids like it cause its really really basic and easy to pick up and play. Its not really punishing, games are short, and theres a fuckton of different minigames, although many are similar gameplay wise.
There is a little creativity if you get into actually making minigames, but i think most kids just play the games.
Its free to play but you can buy robux with real money to buy cosmetics in the game. Some minigames use robux to buy better weapons, like revolvers in a knife throwing game. My step kids used to ask me for robux all the time, but no way. Their dad would buy the $50 robux cards every weekend and they would update their outfits in tha game. Alot of the purchases are linked specifically to individual mini games, but my kids changed mini games that often it really doesnt seem worth the money.

Anyone who has kids or young siblings/relatives knows how big this game is with kids. Not surprised at this number
Been volunteering with kids the last 5 years and Roblox has consistently been the game they're all crazy about its fucking nuts.
I can see the appeal then.. kind of like getting Warcraft 3 and then just playing a bunch of dumb custom maps, which I spent many many hours on. Sure there were some complex competitive ones like DotA, but there were also a ton of really basic ones
