The site, in 2006
An online platform where players build their own games in Roblox Studio and play games made by others, spending a virtual currency called Robux.
David Baszucki and Erik Cassel, formerly of physics-software firm Knowledge Revolution, began it in 2004 as DynaBlocks and released it on 1 September 2006. The company says half of American children under 16 now play it each month.
In 2006: Released on 1 September along with Roblox Studio; early player-made hits included paintball games, haunted houses and model trains to ride.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Cult Classics: Small, strange and loved to bits by the people who found them.
