One of the most popular video games among children is Roblox . With a PEGI 7 (recommended age for boys and girls aged seven and over), if you are a mother or father you should not worry in principle since their visual style is completely casual, without the realism or viscerality that prevails in other kinds of commercial games . To look for a resemblance, think of Minecraft .

But that it is a clearly children’s product does not mean that it does not adopt certain policies that are usually seen in current video games after the Internet boom. Because even if it is a free game, it has micropayments in cosmetic products or to get benefits. So you want to have your parental control at hand .

Creating a Theme Park on Roblox is something that I would never have imagined in a children’s game

Roblox account PIN and activate restrictions: Roblox Guide for Parents: How to Activate Parental Controls and Monitor Payment Methods

First of all you should know that Roblox is a game in which you can create various games of multiple styles: from platforms to driving, through shooting ( always with a childish tone, never bloody ) or puzzles. There are endless creations, with some being enjoyed by many millions of players.

If you want to control your children as much as possible, you should go to the security section :

• Here you have the option of activating the account controls, being able to establish a four-digit PIN that will be mandatory every time you want to make a change in the account settings later. And that only you will know.
• Another important step is to activate the account restrictions , so that only the revised content of the platform can be accessed, in case someone creates an improper game without being previously verified. Just in case. This is also related to games that are specific to their age .

In addition, within the same security section you can activate the verification in two steps, with a verified email that you have at your disposal. This is achieved after putting one and clicking on the email that comes to you from Roblox . In this way, every time your son or daughter wants to play, they will have to go through your permission.

What is Robux, the payment method in Roblox: Roblox Guide for Parents: How to Activate Parental Controls and Monitor Payment Methods

As we said at the beginning, Roblox is a totally free game in which you can create countless games at the same time . And all these games are still 100% free . The problem comes with its avatar store , where people create their own clothes and other decorative elements, because the vast majority cost Robux, which is the currency of the game itself. Or also that there is a Premium account.

This membership ( Roblux Premium ) is a monthly subscription these rates:

• 450 Robux per month = 4.99 euros
• 1,000 Robux per month = 9.99 euros
• 2,200 Robux per month = 20.99 euros

This Premium account gives access to exclusive cosmetic items for adults, apart from allowing access to certain levels or power-ups for Premium.

Either from mobile devices (tablets or phones) such as PC or Xbox One, each system has its own payment methods that you must previously monitor. They can be credit and debit cards, prepaid, PayPal …

If despite controlling all these accounts you run into any irregularity, you will be comforted to know that the Roblox team has a section specifically dedicated to unauthorized charges and refund requests that you can consult from its own website . Because even if you have parental control activated, nothing guarantees 100% that your offspring will not find another way to deceive you.

And when you report a specific charge, provide all this information :

• List of charges by date and amount
• Billing name
• Last four digits of the credit / debit card used
• PayPal account email address
• Google Play purchase numbers
• Roblox username ( viewed from here )
• Attachments must be in .jpg or .png format to view

Finally, you can also check the transactions from Roblox .
