    Most of these things have a free tier. I would be hardly suprised if roblox doesn’t.

    As someone who does know a lot about the industry i simply cannot recommend roblox. However i can recommend the following:

    Make an account tougher with your daughter and let her play in the living room, streamed to the tv if you can and let her guide you trough what this game is and what she finds fun about it.

    Bonding aside there is a good chance that the free tier is all she needed and the real fun is connecting multiplayer with her real life friends.

    Sooner or later you will face some examples of the traps and dangers, but those are generally the same ones that exist everywhere online, at which point you can let your daughter explain the supposed purpose of em while directly complimenting it with your parental insight. This helps you set and explain boundaries in relation to the game and helps build resilience to the inherent risks of the digital age.

      This is good advice, but I think Roblox is a game marketplace/platform, which makes that more difficult. It’s a harder sell to explore the social features as a family than a game.
