Roblox offers both single-player and multi-player game modes, and works on almost every major platform or OS, including Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Xbox and Windows Store.

Robux can be used to purchase new items for your character, new items for the game, or just anything that’s offered in the store. You can spend and earn money here, so some games or items within games might cost money, paying the creators who made them.

Fortnite is a free Battle Royale online game, much like a survivor game where up to 100 players fight against each other in a player-versus-player combat until there is one player standing.

There are three main Fortnite modes: Save the World, Battle Royale, and Creative. Save the World was the original version of the game in which you play as a survivor in a zombie-like apocalypse and you must gather resources and focus on surviving the various elements and enemies in different missions. Battle Royale is the most popular game mode where groups of up to 100 players compete against each other to be the last one standing. Then, there is the Creative mode, which is a Sandbox game where players are allowed to design and create their own Fortnite games and experiences.
