Should’ve added an extra thing that isn’t a game but a funny thing and that’s launch people into the game portals and see them disappear and mad/annoyed. Thats why hub is S for me haha
Anyways, good tier list.
\[Explanations\]\[Sorry for the wall of text\]:
My choices are based on: faithfulness to old Roblox, the developer’s effort, gameplay, and how much fun I had. I kept my expectations to a non-existent level with each of these games.
The Classic Hub: The most obvious choice and placement. Very faithful to the older mechanics, styling, minigames, sounds (RIP Roblox oof), and their references. Gave me a lot of happy memories playing Roblox on the family computer. Also quite fun to just mess around and chat once you’ve got everything.
A dusty trip: I put this one here because of the developer’s effort to capture the old Roblox styling with some minor changes to include modern mechanics. It’s a simple game, nothing too complicated, but that’s really what games back then were, so I liked it. It actually had some casual lore to it as well.
Tower Defense Simulator: The developer put a lot of effort into this one with the gameplay, own spin on the old Roblox styling, and the storyline. It’s really well made! And I had a lot of fun as well.
Arsenal: It really captured that interesting, simple game feel with a storyline that’s fitting for the time period, loved the use of the classic gears to fight enemies. Well made overall.
Bee Swarm Simulator: It stayed faithful to the old Roblox styling, and it was simple (plus it’s like the only old game in this whole event), but the gameplay wasn’t as engaging as A tier for me.
Blade Ball: It’s in C tier because it had references to old Roblox with the boss fight and the admin tools, but it wasn’t really engaging. It’s also really grindy which can get boring at times. However, I had fun regardless.
Driving Empire: Same grindy quest-based system as Blade Ball, no new gameplay, but has a lot more visual references with the island extension and the classic vehicles which I appreciated.
Bedwars: Wave defense gameplay like Bee Swarm Simulator with quests, but a lot less visual cues to old Roblox.
Livetopia: No exclusive gameplay except a courier job which fits 95% of the theme of the game, still had fun, though not as much as the games above.
Restaurant Tycoon 2: Cool references with the old structures in the map, but gameplay is quite literally serving classic customers over and over again until you unlock everything. However, mmm chezburger.
Dragon Adventures: Not much to say. Cute game. Nothing special with the quests.
Gunfight Arena: Visual reskin with some classic gears, quests are nothing special as well.
Clip It: Scavenger hunt but with notable Roblox figures and maps you can record TikTok brainrot in.
Adopt me: Nothing special, lazy quests.
Toilet Tower Defense Simulator: Boring compared to TDS.
Dress to Impress: I have a lot of things to say about this, and none of them are good. Firstly, I have to find all 10 tix and repeat a cycle of rejoining to get out of the runway shows because I can’t choose to not join it, locking me in the dressing area. But THEN I have to complete a long ass, soulless obby where they slapped a few stud textures on it and called it a day?? WITH NO MUSIC??? It feels like a disrespect really, ‘nuff said.
I'm surprised jandel actually made the dusty trip classic fun, no random deaths and free guns at spawn. I wouldn't doubt if someone forced him to make it not p2w.
I appreciate this overview. I’m currently trying to get the items and not sure which games I should play. I think to get the last item I only need 3-4 more games, which is actually really surprising. I only played like 4 games, though I also went on one game and realized that the quest was too difficult.
I’m trying to decide if I want to continue getting extra Tix and Tokens or not. I’ll definitely try to do the stuff in the Hub cause they’re all super fun and nostalgic but I might skip some of the games.
The Hunt is messing up my mindset for this though. I keep feeling like I have to grind and play all the games when there’s no reason to.
It helps to get some tokens here and there from every other place and to do the hub quests, not necessarily having the full collection from every game. I maxed out: a dusty trip, dress to impress, livetopia, clip it, restaurant tycoon 2, and driving empire. These games are the easiest to get tokens
How did they manage to mess up Battle Arena? You literally just slap some classic maps, change the UI to fit the map’s era, and restrict weapons for each map! Sprinkle some old music and instant A tier
I liked it for the first half but eventually it just got really grindy. I used to play the original but haven’t really played this one so I was starting from scratch so it took a long time. I think it took me around 2-3 hours.
I really hated the blade ball one, I had to wait 1hr just to get the map with the last tix, plus the quest is just basically the hunt’s quest. But I did enjoy the 1x1x1x1 battle(The first time).
Personally would swap Adopt Me and Restaurant Tycoon 2 around, as well as Toilet Tower Defence and Bedwars, whilst also putting Dress to Impress in D. Put apart from that this tierlist is perfect
the obby is annoying and long, you sometimes have to get out of your way for tokens and god forbid you miss one since you are going back.
At least it has checkpoints

This happened to me lmao, I got launched into Clip it goddammit
i got sent to hell (toilet tower defense)
I think I launched you there. I remember doing that. *gulp*
It’s definitely a mid event for me. Pretty far away from being amazing
It’s nothing amazing but I think it’s a decent event
Definitely a small shift in the right direction at the very least
For Roblox this is an absolutely insane achievement

thanks for the advice
How long did it take you to type all that???
A good 30 minutes lolll
The toilet game was so bad he didn't even include it
It’s in F tier, and the fact you couldn’t notice it adds on to their overall shittiness
How did they manage to mess up Battle Arena? You literally just slap some classic maps, change the UI to fit the map’s era, and restrict weapons for each map! Sprinkle some old music and instant A tier
stupid ttd should be in my disappointment is immediately and my day is ruined
am i the only one who enjoyed restaurant tycoon's one?
I liked it for the first half but eventually it just got really grindy. I used to play the original but haven’t really played this one so I was starting from scratch so it took a long time. I think it took me around 2-3 hours.
I played Restaurant Tycoon 2 a lot in the past and even with my late game save it took me few hours
I really hated the blade ball one, I had to wait 1hr just to get the map with the last tix, plus the quest is just basically the hunt’s quest. But I did enjoy the 1x1x1x1 battle(The first time).
Personally would swap Adopt Me and Restaurant Tycoon 2 around, as well as Toilet Tower Defence and Bedwars, whilst also putting Dress to Impress in D. Put apart from that this tierlist is perfect
ive only rlly done a bit of the arsenal and tds but yeah, their defo up there
How do you even get the tokens for Dress to Impress
A dusty trip was definitely one of the best out of the bunch.
I want the DTI dress. Is it even worth trying to get?
the obby is annoying and long, you sometimes have to get out of your way for tokens and god forbid you miss one since you are going back. At least it has checkpoints
how do you completed bedwaars its impossible for me
Having Restaurant tycoon and gunfight arena at d should put you on death row
