'''[http://www.roblox.com Roblox]''' is a '''free''' online [[Games Page|multiplayer]] game, where you play in user-created worlds with blocks. Unlike most other games there aren't any pre-defined goals. You are given [[Class Reference|a variety of objects]], [[Lua Help|a scripting language]], [[People Browser|other people]] and left to do whatever you want. With your free account, you get a [[character]] and a [[place]]. You can customize your place and character however you want, and visit anyone else's [[place|place]] as well.

[http://www.roblox.com ROBLOX] is an online game platform and game creation system developed by Roblox Corporation that allows users to program games and play games created by other users. In the modern day, ROBLOX is one of the biggest platforms of creativity and content creation in the world -- But that doesn't mean its past is to be forgotten! This wiki's purpose is to bring insight to the workings of the older versions of ROBLOX (2006-2012).

{{TitledBox/start|tag=td colspan=3|heading=About this new project|orange|vertical-align:top}}
This site is a rehosting of the classic Roblox Wiki from 2012, on a fresh MediaWiki instance. We have plans to create new documentation and articles, using the existing platform as a base. We are still planning how and when exactly, but generally we would like to do the following:


{{TitledBox/end|tag=td}}
* New branding
* New guides and resources
* Game design and technical writeups on classic places and models to teach people how they work and are designed
* Info on the current state of old Roblox, and guides on getting it set up so you can start developing games (with Novetus)
* Redesigned home pages to be more relevant (replace quick links to defunct site stuff with engine documentation)
* High quality screenshots and video recordings
* Make the website more mobile friendly
* Documenting the undocumented
* Probably more!


{{TitledBox/start|tag=td|heading={{CatItem|Faq.PNG|Welcome to Roblox|New to Roblox?|Get the advice you need to start your world today!}}|yellow|vertical-align:top; width:33%}}
This project is being led by [https://realja.me realjame] with a few other people serving as co-editors, you can find everyone [[Special:ListUsers/editor|here]]. We hope this site will be a crucial resource to help people make new games for classic Roblox, or at the very least learn about Roblox's history. Thanks for visiting!
Roblox is an online game designed for kids 4-14. As a Roblox member, players could play and build user-created games with [[Roblox Studio]]. Games are also able to be scripted with Lua.
