Although Roblox is very far from my taste in games, I wanted to join my kids in a few multiplayer games, and was very happy to find out Sober exists. It worked like a charm.

Yea that's pretty much my extent of Roblox myself, playing with the kids.

It's certainly something, some of the "experiences" are plain cash grabs (which I talk to them about) but I find quite a few to be genuinely fun, even if they're absolute chaos sometimes lmfao
