This game is like Legos - building blocks. All the games and content you see were created by players, not Roblox company. This means that you can build your own game for other people to play. The games, worlds, clothes, accessories, everything is created by players. Sounds neat. Except that players are people, and a certain percentage of them will always be bastards.

So hypothetically I could create a game that has a huge billboard with an image on it, and I can point the URL of this image to... say... some pornography or worse. There is no mechanism to stop me from doing this, and people have done it. They actually make games to draw young kids in, and then script in porn images to flash in front of them at some point. I've tried over a hundred games and I've run across two of these.

That said, there are still three stars on my review. It's a solid game with a (mostly) good community of kids and parents who play it. If there were some reliable parental controls and monitoring of inappropriate activity, then this would be 5 stars. But since my kids can only play when I can play, that's not very convenient for either of us!

Bottom line: Great game if you can play WITH your kids.

If that is not an option, do not allow your young kids ages to play this or any other online game until they are old enough. Especially sandbox games with player-created content and no controls or monitors.

I'd not go so far as to call it a scam business - they'll basically send you what you ordered eventually. So first the good part:

I ordered a loft bed from them, which was supposed to include the lumber, cut and sanded, and optionally stained (didn't go for this, wanted to stain myself).

It arrived after a few weeks and was missing an option, which they promptly mailed me without charging me for shipping again. So that's the good.

Here's the bad: the wood is very poor quality, with knots, cracks, and spliters. It's not well cut - the pieces don't fit together nicely. The sanding job is laughable. It's like they passed a sander over it once as ceremony rather than actually to make a quality product. It's a rushed job that's not worth the money. Honestly it'd be better to buy the plans and get the lumber from Home Depot or something and cut it your self.

The other thing that's not bad with a capital B, but a fairly skeezy, is that one of the owners or workers of the business Sam Marion puts fake 5 star reviews everywhere (including here).

Really, dude?
