10 inappropriate Roblox games your child shouldn’t be playing

Roblox is easily one of the most popular gaming platforms in the world, particularly with young people. It allows players to develop almost any game they can imagine, so you won’t be surprised to find out that there are some inappropriate Roblox games to keep your eye out for. While many Roblox experiences have adult themes, most don’t go quite as far as these titles. Here are the most inappropriate games on Roblox and why your child shouldn’t be playing them.

There are plenty of shooters on Roblox that don’t make this list, mainly because they don’t try to emulate realistic injuries or violence. The stylized graphics on Roblox can lull you into thinking that everything on the platform is appropriate for kids, but that simply isn’t the case. As always, it is important to be aware of what your child is doing online, whether it is in a game or on social media. Whether it is because of violent themes or sexual content, here are the 10 games on Roblox that parents should be watching out for listed in alphabetical order.

Cabin Roleplay

There isn’t much better than chilling out with friends in a cozy cabin. Cabin Roleplay offers exactly that, but some warning flags come with this chilled-out vibe. Like many Roblox experiences, there is very little moderation for which cabin you join on the public servers, especially with the inclusion of voice chat. The game itself doesn’t have any sexual or inappropriate content within it but it doesn’t do enough to protect kids from adults who would use the platform for nefarious purposes. 

Chilling Club

Everyone loves to get into the club to unwind with friends, so there are plenty of Roblox experiences out there that offer a virtual version of that. Chilling Club is designed to be a more laid-back game, but it is only as safe as the people you’re playing with. The team behind this Roblox game is trying to improve their moderation, but you should be keeping an eye on what your child is doing in any game where they can freely interact with strangers.

Club Iris

This Roblox experience tries to recreate the look and feel of a dance club. Admittedly, it does a fairly good job of that, but things get sketchy with the inclusion of beds and some of the sexual themes in the game’s avatars. The game’s chat function can also be problematic, with it being very easy to expose young players to sexual language without warning. Club Iris is listed as “All Ages” on Roblox but it has too few safeguards to protect kids from grooming or from being exposed to inappropriate content for their age.

Piggy

We have some bad news for you: this game isn’t about Peppa Pig. This Roblox horror game takes some visual inspiration from everyone’s favorite family of pigs, but Piggy is a decidedly more terrifying version. Surrounded by humanoid pigs who are coming to kill you, the player must escape the house and uncover the mystery of what could cause a good pig to go so bad. If you’re up for a good scare, this is a fun game to play but you probably don’t want your child to associate their favorite pig with murder.

Poppy Playtime

Poppy Playtime is a remake of the original PC game using the Roblox environment, and it does a decent job of it. This game makes our list of the most inappropriate Roblox games for its use of graphic violence to create tension along with the lack of any age guidelines on its page listing. These two factors mean that there are very few safeguards for young players who happen upon the experience while browsing the Roblox library. 

Rainbow Friends

The setting of Rainbow Friends is simple enough. Young people go on a field trip that goes horribly awry, resulting in them being stalked by a group of horrible monsters with big, goofy grins. The juxtaposition of the cute characters performing horrific acts of violence makes this another effective horror title, but it can be easy to mistake it for something more wholesome at first glance. Despite the cute aesthetic, this is a Roblox game that will make your kids lose sleep at night.

Shower Simulator

Communal baths aren’t exactly uncommon in many parts of the world, but having a stranger wash your back isn’t something most young people experience. While Shower Simulator doesn’t have any actual nudity, there is a lot of implied nudity in this Roblox experience as well as people scrubbing each other. This is a game that often gets taken off the platform for skirting many of the Roblox rules only for a clone to be put back online a short time later.

Survive the Killer

Dead by Daylight has spawned a whole host of imitators in gaming, but most of them on Roblox avoid trying to recreate realistic violence. A single killer is tasked with stabbing, shooting, and otherwise maiming multiple victims each round, earning points for each kill. Survive the Killer has some of the best gore and blood effects on the platform, making it a good horror game but not one that is appropriate for most of the young people on Roblox. 

Vibe Place

This is another game where players are largely left to their own devices. Unfortunately, when you leave people on the Internet to their own devices, things often become dirty. Vibe Place lets players chill out and talk to each other, but too often the chats turn sexual. The lack of moderation within the servers is what makes this one of the most inappropriate Roblox games for kids.

XYZ Club Dance

Dancing around a swimming pool is a dangerous prospect, but that isn’t what makes this Roblox experience inappropriate. XYZ Dance Club has many of the same issues as other games on this list. It is very difficult to moderate a game like this, where the entire point is to meet new people and chat via text or voice. Aside from the prospect of people playing music you wouldn’t want your young person hearing, numerous safeguarding concerns come with allowing strangers to speak to kids online. It just isn’t worth the risk.
