Roblox is a startup company based in Silicon Valley, California. We are a team of hardcore engineers with a passion for quality in everything that we do. Our project straddles several rapidly-developing aspects of internet entertainment: virtual worlds, casual gaming, and user-constructed content.
Roblox is free to play and safe for kids aged 4-124. Our product remains under heavy development and is currently in public alpha testing. We deeply value community feedback as we continue to make Roblox into a game that will excite the imagination of the young and the young at heart.
