Roblox review
Roblox is less a single game than a platform full of them. Everything you play is built by its community, from solo hobbyists to full studios, and the range runs from role-play hangouts like Brookhaven RP to shooters, tycoons, horror and fashion games such as Dress to Impress. It suits kids, teens and anyone who wants a steady stream of new things to try with friends.
Day to day, you open the app, pick an experience from the charts or recommendations and load straight in. Your avatar carries across every game, and you can dress it up with items from the marketplace. Quality varies a lot from one experience to the next, so expect to sample a few before finding ones you stick with. Progress and friends follow you across phone, tablet, PC, console and VR.
Why we picked it: The sheer variety and cross-platform play make it an easy social hub, and the core app costs nothing.
Watch out for: Many games push Robux purchases, some include loot boxes, and parents should set up the account controls before younger kids play.
What we like
- Enormous variety of genres in one free app
- Cross-platform play across mobile, PC, console and VR

What could be better
- In-game purchases and loot boxes are common
- Game quality is very uneven
- Needs a constant internet connection
- Can be demanding on older phones and batteries
