Well, there it is, the update for Roblox has arrived that now forcefully blocks it from working with Wine on Linux systems (like Steam Deck).

    Can’t comment on the site but alternatives to Roblox are Fortnite (doesn’t work on Linux) and Core (haven’t tested)

      How much has Fortnite changed that it is now an alternative to Roblox?

        A ton, actually. I’m not very engaged in it, but every time some friends convince me to play something on Fortnite with them, I can’t help but notice the section of hundreds and thousands of gamemodes with custom rules, items, mechanics, and so on.

        For example, I see many clones of bed wars from Minecraft, third-person CoD clones, RP servers, base/colony building gamemodes, zombie survival modes, etc. It effectively has a sandbox game maker inside of the regular Fortnite, alongside Rocket Racing (racing game) and Fortnite Festival (rhythm game). It’s a very fleshed out environment, although it doesn’t have the same potential for custom assets that Roblox does.
