Games Like Roblox: Simulators, Tycoons and Party Games
Updated
Games like Roblox are short, colorful 3D games built around one loop: get stronger and go further, build a business and watch the money stack up, or beat a course and a few friends. Roblox is an online service by Roblox Corporation where people play games made by other users, and its games range from role-play to prison escapes (source). Below are original browser games by independent studios in the styles people know from it.
The Roblox-style loops, and where to find them
There is no single Roblox game to copy, so this guide sorts the picks by loop.
| The loop | How it plays | Games below |
|---|---|---|
| Simulator | Train or click to get stronger, go further, rebirth and start again stronger | Obby Highest Jump Ever, Obby: Fly the Farthest in an Airplane |
| Tycoon | Collect, sell, hire workers, expand | Pro Builder 3D, Wood Builder Tycoon |
| Obby | Jump through an obstacle course to the finish | Bean Party Obby, +1 Speed Superhero Obby |
| Party | Short mini-games against other players | PartyToons, Hide And Seek Friends |
Simulators: train, go further, rebirth
A simulator gives you one number to grow. Every jump, run or click makes it bigger, and a rebirth resets your progress in exchange for a bonus that makes the next run faster.
- Obby Highest Jump Ever is a clicker climb: every click makes your jump stronger, and you work up from a 10M building to 2500M towers, collecting a trophy on each roof. Click or N boosts jump power, Q is an auto clicker, T rebirths, Z opens the pet inventory and G the daily quests. H switches to two players.
- Obby: Fly the Farthest in an Airplane is the same idea in the air. Fly as far as you can, buy new planes and trails, and collect energy and pets that give bonuses. New areas need rebirth points.
- Obby: Training by Car does it on the road. Farm energy to make your car faster, buy new cars and trails, and use the revive system to open new locations.
- Pets Roll: Clicker is the pet-collecting part on its own. Click to roll eggs and hatch cube-style pets: 187 of them across 11 rarity grades, with 17 egg tiers, daily quests and a rebirth system.

Tycoons: build, sell, expand
A tycoon starts you with almost nothing. You carry the first goods by hand, sell them, hire help and watch the business run itself.
- Pro Builder 3D turns raw wood into houses. Carry logs across the construction site, hire workers, then put the finished house up for auction and pick the offer you want.
- Wood Builder Tycoon is a lumber business: chop trees, upgrade sawmills, move timber along conveyor belts and hire workers to scale production.
- Deep Digger Tycoon is digging for profit. Dig up treasures, sell them for coins and reinvest to dig faster.
- Town Builder Inc. is about cash and businesses: collect and stack your earnings, open new businesses in town, upgrade how much you can carry and hire workers. W, A, S and D or the arrow keys move you.
More games that keep earning while you watch are in idle and clicker games.
Obbies: obstacle courses
- Bean Party Obby races you against 14 computer-controlled beans across three courses, plus two survival modes: Hexagon Survival, where the floor vanishes under you, and Color Block, where you run to the announced color for 12 rounds.
- +1 Speed Superhero Obby mixes an obby with a simulator: every step adds speed, speed milestones give you powers such as wall run and gravity flip, and you can race the ghosts of other players.

NEWThere are many more courses, on foot and on wheels, in obby games.
Party games and hangouts
These are for when the point is playing with other people.
- PartyToons is a mini-game party in four-player matches with friends or strangers. Catch strawberries among falling rocks, jump on conveyor belts, pop risky balloons and open mystery boxes, and spend points and trophies on new characters. Four people can share one keyboard: arrows, W A S D, 8 4 5 6 and U H J K.
- Hide And Seek Friends is classic hide and seek in real-time multiplayer. Play the seeker or a hider, build a shelter from cars or office desks, hide in the hay or the cornfield, and push other hiders into the seeker's view.
- Obby Universe: Mini Games Online is a hub: escape lava waves and traps in mini-games, take parachute jumps and water slides, build your own house for bonuses and dress your character from more than 150 items.
- Sheep Party and Pyramid Party are for one to four players on the same screen, with computer players if you are alone. In Sheep Party you jump over or block a spinning iron wolf; in Pyramid Party you race to the treasure chests.
More games for a group are in multiplayer games and 2 player games.
Tips for simulator and tycoon games
- Upgrade what earns money first. In a tycoon, workers and capacity pay back; looks do not.
- Rebirth when progress gets slow, not as soon as you can. The bonus is worth more once the next run is clearly faster.
- Read the key list once. Obby Highest Jump Ever hides an auto clicker on Q and daily quests on G.
- Collect pets early in simulators that have them. In Obby: Fly the Farthest and Obby: Training by Car pets give bonuses on every run.
