How ratings work

Where a game's star average comes from, and how the most helpful reviews rise to the top.

Our star rating (1–5)

When you review a game on ROBLOXREVIEW you give it a star rating from 1 to 5 plus a written review. A game's headline score is the average of all its star ratings, shown next to the number of reviews it has. The more reviews a game has, the more settled its average becomes.

A game with no reviews yet shows no average — it simply has not been rated by the community. Be the first to review a game and help the next player decide.

"Most helpful" sorting

On a game page you can sort reviews. The default, Most helpful, surfaces the reviews that the most people marked as helpful, so the reviews other players found useful rise to the top. You can also sort by newest, highest, or lowest rating.

You help this work every time you mark a review as helpful (or not). Reviews you cannot vote on your own are excluded — you cannot vote on your own review.

The "Roblox approval %" is different

Some game pages also show a Roblox like rating (an approval percentage). This comes from Roblox's own like / dislike votes on that experience — it is not derived from our reviews. We show it as separate context, clearly labelled, alongside the other Roblox stats. It can differ from our star average because it measures something different and a different audience.

Why some pages are not listed yet

We never publish thin or empty game pages. A game that has just been added and has little real content stays unlisted (and is not indexed by search engines) until it has enough to be useful — a fetched description, stats, and ideally some reviews. This keeps the catalog meaningful instead of full of blank pages.
