TYPES OF WORLDS You'll quickly see that there are many different types of worlds within the game, and it's up to you to decide on the one that best fits your interests. Some of the more common types of worlds that can be found throughout Roblox are: • Role Playing Games – Store, House, Work, Prison • Action Games: Shooting, Fighting, Capture the Flag • Building Games: Carry out Interesting Construction Projects Within Someone Else's World • Visiting Games: Just Enjoy the Experience Offered within the Game • Themed Games: After Common Characters You Know, Pokemon, McDonald's, Teen Titans • Sports Games: Dodgeball, Football, Soccer, Basketball • Racing Games: Cars, Trucks, Monster Trucks, Classic Cars • Theme Parks, Zoos, Pizza Places and More!

You can make your own, as well. It might be hard to choose just one to go with, but with so many options, you're sure to see something you like. Switch between them to find out what each has to offer and which you like the most. Exploring all the worlds is one of the most enjoyable aspects of Roblox, so test out a bunch! THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SCRIPTING, MINI-WORLDS AND WORLDS There's a big difference between the three main world types in Roblox — Scripted, Full Worlds and Mini Worlds. Each one of these is something different for the user to know. Understanding what each is while playing can give you a better idea of which you should be using for the specific game or task you'd like to do. Scripting Worlds: Scripting is used to enhance worlds, create custom items and breathe life into the different objects throughout the Roblox universe. All the item functions, as well as some of their looks is controlled by scripting. Learning how to do it will give you more control when crafting your own worlds. The programming language that is used for this scripting is Lua. It's a powerful tool that you can use to develop more in-depth items, worlds and game play. Using this language provides you with a way to create a full on, interactive game of your own, and it's the way that some of the coolest worlds in the game are made. People have scripting worlds open for all that want to come and add items to them. These worlds give you the chance to try out some new items you made, build on something as a team and get pointers from other players that know how to use the scripting language. This is highly recommended for new players that want to learn more about creating their own items and worlds through scripting. Scripting provides the user with more abilities than just using stock items in RobloxStudio, but you'll have to learn more on how to use the language. You can learn more about this later on. Worlds: Worlds are games that users create throughout the Roblox website. You can choose one of these to play in if you want to interact with others. They have a full interface with an objective you need to fulfill. This objective could be anything from cashing out a certain amount of customers to beating the other team by capturing their flag. The worlds in Roblox are limitless. Full worlds are more advanced and have a lot more inside them. They might also have a common theme, a game to play or just an impressive landscape with buildings, islands, vehicles and other things for you to make use of. These worlds are the most common places found throughout Roblox, and the most common thing players create. However, if you do not complete a whole world and make the world public for all to play, then you'd have a 'mini-world.' Mini Worlds: Mini worlds can be visited but don't go into depth as much. They usually are user-created worlds that are not finished or that don't have much of an objective. Users create them to allow other players to add to them, or as a place to go to practice building in some way when you're new to the game. They're also good tools for new players that want to be more creative. Mini worlds sometimes provide small objectives, such as racing other players or building a few specific items. There are even worlds where you can learn how to build your own mini worlds. The options on Roblox worlds, mini or not are expansive. If you can think something up, it has probably been created on Roblox. If you can't find what you're looking for with one of these three options, you can make one for others searching for the same type of thing, whether it's through advanced scripting, in a mini world or a full world, the option is all yours. Any of the three types of worlds that you choose provide a fun experience, and each enriches Roblox just a bit more. It's important to note that you can use the RobloxStudio to create both the world and the mini world that you'd like to have on the website. Now that you know about the different world types, it's time to dig into actual world options themselves. Knowing more about where you can go play is also a good thing. In the next chapter, you'll learn about some of the most highly featured, loved games found in Roblox. Find a world you'd like to try out or create one of your own!
