US online platform where users create, share and play user-generated 3D games and experiences, popular with younger players.
Players buy Robux, its virtual currency, and spend it inside experiences built by independent creators, who receive a share of that spending that Roblox converts into cash; Roblox keeps the rest and pays for servers, payments and app-store fees. It recognizes spending gradually over a paying user's typical lifetime, so sales lag bookings.
Moat: narrow (network effects, installed base, brand). Large network of creators and players reinforces itself, though competition for younger gamers' time is intense.
