Adopt Me also climbed from 487K to 564K, so both top roleplays are surging simultaneously. Fish It! holds perfectly flat at 395K for the third straight week. Dress To Impress sits at 105K, stable as always.

Steal a Brainrot is locked at 460K again — it hasn’t moved more than 1% in a month. Be a Lucky Block climbed from 142K to 165K, cementing its place at #2 after last week’s breakout. Sol’s RNG enters the top 5 at 63K, pushing Pet Simulator 99 out. Bee Swarm Simulator holds at 59K — one of the most consistent games on the platform.
Horror & Survival 👻
99 Nights surges past the 400K barrier for the first time.

| 5 | Survive the Apocalypse | 28,831 |
99 Nights jumped from 347K to 398K — another 15% gain. It’s been climbing for three weeks straight, and at this rate it’ll cross 400K by next week’s snapshot. Escape Tsunami holds flat at 271K. The real story is Survive the Apocalypse replacing Scary Shawarma Kiosk at #5 with 28K. Two tsunami-themed games in the top 5 is still wild.
Shooters & FPS 🔫
The entire shooter genre is up this week. RIVALS leads by a massive margin.
| # | Game | Players |

| 1 | RIVALS | 411,187 |
| 2 | Hypershot | 33,933 |

RPG & Adventure ⚔️
Blox Fruits keeps climbing after last week’s Update 25 surge.

Blox Fruits pushed from 374K to 489K — still riding the Update 25 wave with no sign of slowing down. Anime Vanguards held steady at 58K after doubling last week. Dragon Adventures cooled from 19K back to 14K as the egg hunt hype faded. Your Bizarre Adventure re-enters the top 5 at 10K, replacing Summon Heroes. The RPG genre is Blox Fruits and everything else.

| 4 | Blade Ball | 22,638 |
| 5 | Murderers VS Sheriffs DUELS | 17,683 |
Last week I called Jujutsu Shenanigans a cautionary tale after its 63% crash. This week it bounced from 162K to 355K — a 119% recovery driven by the April Fools event. The Strongest Battlegrounds also surged from 91K to 106K. Murderers VS Sheriffs jumped from 12K to 60K, which is a 400% spike. Blade Ball re-enters at 22K. The fighting genre had its best week in a month.

| 4 | Jump To Steal Lucky Blocks | 22,206 |
| 5 | Parkour For Brainrots! | 18,815 |
Swing Obby dropped from 72K to 40K — a 44% correction that’s still enough for #1. Grace holds flat at 32K. BARRY’S PRISON RUN grew from 19K to 25K, taking #3 from Jump To Steal Lucky Blocks. Two brainrot-named games in the top 5, same as last week. The brainrot naming formula keeps working for obby discovery.
Tower Defense 🏰
All Star TD holds the crown after last week’s doubling.
| # | Game | Players |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | All Star Tower Defense | 26,341 |
| 2 | Garden Tower Defense | 13,477 |

| 4 | Car Zone | 3,576 |

Driving Empire jumped from 23K to 33K — a 41% gain likely driven by its Horse update. Vehicle Legends grew from 4.3K to 6.2K with its egg hunt event. MOTO WORLD is a new entry at #5 with 3.2K. Drive World drops out. The racing genre remains one of the few untouched by the brainrot naming trend.

New #1 this week as Secret Staycation takes over.

Music & Rhythm 🎵
Small genre, dedicated audience. I wrote about why Roblox music games matter in The Sound of a Generation.
| # | Game | Players |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Funky Friday | 1,949 |
| 2 | wOw | 1,157 |
| 3 | TOD | 976 |
| 4 | Visual Pianos | 660 |
| 5 | Project RUSHER | 627 |
Funky Friday climbed from 1.1K back to 1.9K — a partial recovery after last week’s crash. Sing It! Karaoke Battles drops out of the top 5 entirely. TOD and wOw swap places. The music genre on Roblox still needs that one viral moment to break through. These numbers are tiny compared to every other genre, but the players who are here are committed.
Trending & Rising 🚀
The fastest-growing games this week across all genres.
| # | Game | Players |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Be a Lucky Block | 165,134 |
| 2 | Aura Ascension | 52,545 |
| 3 | Shrink For Brainrots | 26,619 |
| 4 | Open Sea For Brainrots! | 20,231 |
| 5 | Parkour For Brainrots! | 18,476 |
Be a Lucky Block grew from 142K to 165K — a 16% gain on top of last week’s 130% explosion. The growth is slowing but still positive. Aura Ascension jumped from 42K to 52K. Three out of five trending games have “brainrot” in the title. Open Sea For Brainrots is new at #4 with 20K. The brainrot naming formula remains the most reliable growth strategy for new Roblox games.
Week 14 Takeaways
Brookhaven had its best week in months. From 512K to 665K is a 30% surge for a game that usually moves in single digits. Adopt Me climbed 15% too. Both top roleplay games growing simultaneously suggests an influx of new or returning players to the platform — Roblox as a whole is up.
Blox Fruits isn’t done. From 228K two weeks ago to 489K now. Update 25 is the gift that keeps giving. It overtook Steal a Brainrot for Global #3 and at this trajectory it could challenge Adopt Me within weeks. The RPG genre basically IS Blox Fruits right now — the gap to #2 (Anime Vanguards at 58K) is absurd.
Jujutsu Shenanigans pulled off the comeback. After crashing 63% last week, it bounced 119% with the April Fools event. Event-driven games are volatile by nature, but recovering from 162K to 355K in one week shows the playerbase is still there — they just need a reason to come back. The entire fighting genre benefited.
The tycoon and shooter genres are quietly surging. Every single game in both top 5s grew this week. Restaurant Tycoon 3 up 52%, Oil Empire up 74%, RIVALS up 10%, Hypershot up 43%. When multiple genres show broad growth simultaneously, it confirms the platform itself is gaining traffic.
Brainrot naming is still the meta. Three of the top 5 trending games use the brainrot naming convention. Steal a Brainrot sits at 460K for the fourth week. Escape Tsunami For Brainrots holds 271K. Open Sea For Brainrots entered trending. The formula works and nobody’s getting tired of it yet.
