While there are many popular games on Roblox that everyone plays, this guide is here to highlight some of the dying or dying games that deserve some love. Instead of clicking on the same things you always play, try one of the top 10 dead or dying Roblox games to enjoy something that was once enjoyed by many.
The best dying or dead games on Roblox
The following 10 games are Roblox games that have significantly less active players than other games that appear in your recommended feed. Some of these games have been out for a few years, while others have been around on Roblox for much longer. Roblox is full of unique games, but I thought these ten stood out enough to be given another chance in life.
10. The Normal Elevator
Created in 2025, The Normal Elevator is a game about an elevator that is far from normal. Although Roblox will tell you that there are still over 900 active players, if you compare that to a game that is still popular – like Restaurant Tycoon 2, which has over 14k active players – you can see a clear difference.
The Normal Elevator has not been updated since April 2023, and now has a spin-off game created by a separate developer. Unfortunately, the spin-off is significantly less popular, with only three active players. The Normal Lift seems to retain a bit of a fan base, being one of the top comments on a Reddit post about dying Roblox games.
Honestly, I’m not sure where to start with my experience with this game. All I know is one second it was dark, and the next it was Doritos and Snoop Dogg.
9. Cook Burgers
4,000 players still enjoy this restaurant management simulation, so it’s not as dead as the other games on this list. Cook Burgers lets you have your own burger restaurant where you make different burgers to serve to your customers. Customers will enter the restaurant and make requests, which you then have to cook.
It also has a very basic character creator where you can dress up as an employee, waiter or chef. The problem with this one is that players just walk in and trash the restaurant, which makes it hard to start orders because there are ingredients everywhere. For a more recent game, try Burger Tycoon.
8. Factory Simulator
If you love a good management simulation, Factory Simulator is the game for you. This Roblox masterpiece lets you build your own industrial empire by carefully crafting each of your factories and building them until you earn more in-game money than you know what to do with.
With 69.9 million hits as of 2021, it’s a shame to see the active players drop in this game to a paltry 157 players. It does have a bit of a learning curve, and I found the tutorial quite time consuming, but if you’re someone who thrives on sim games, you’ll enjoy it a lot.
7. Stellar Scape
Somehow still in BETA, despite being released in 2017, Star Scape is an open universe exploration game that’s perfect for sci-fi fans. It retains only 82 active players, but has had 13.8 million visits since its conception. Star Scape is Roblox’s biggest sandbox game, welcoming players to fly around a huge world or stay on the ship and explore everything else the game has to offer.
Waking up in a clone bay is a bit odd, but there is an undeniable amount of effort that went into this game and it is clearly visible.
6. Framed!
Some ridiculous 65 million views with only 66 active players left, Framed! is a game that definitely deserves more love. It’s your typical spy game, with the fun of hunting down your targets while running from the law.
Once you’ve collected enough points from your hit list, you can use the shop to exchange those points for better gear and improve your game. Honestly, the premise of this game is amazing and it deserves a lot more love than having only 66 players. You don’t have to play as an undercover spy if you don’t want to; you can also play as the police or a framed individual.
5. Foolish Wizard
Now Wacky Wizard does have 3k active players, but hear me out. That’s 3,000 players left from a game that had 867 million hits. It’s only three years old, so I’d say it’s a dying game instead of dead. Obviously there is still a significant amount of people logging in to play.
In Wacky Wizard, players play as wizards and can enjoy creating new potions to drink. What happens after that, well, it gets a little crazy. Potions can have all sorts of effects on a player’s avatar. I can honestly say I never thought I would give myself pool noodles.
4. Notice of eviction
The downside of this being a dying game is that it takes a hot minute to gather enough players to start a game – whether you’re on the solo or duo platform. Eviction Notice is a game that feels like Big Brother. You start in a house with a bunch of other players and complete challenges. At the end of the challenge, the winner can nominate two people to try to evict.
This game currently has 682 active players, and it’s really not the kind of game that can afford to lose too many.
3. Drive Cars Down a Hill!
I’m sick of weird games like this. It reminds me of relaxing in my high school IT classes and just playing absolutely random things between assignments. There would always be someone in a strange online game from some extraordinary website, and Drive Cars Down a Hill! has that vibe.
You just drive cars. There are several different cars to choose from, and you just… Go. You can enjoy various terrains, realistic looking cars, and challenge yourself to beat the fast times of other players. With 442 active players, you can enjoy baby’s first driving game on Roblox without needing specific driving skills.
2. Parkour Run!
1.2k players still enjoy reading it around this game! Parkour Run! gives players a randomly generated obstacle course to run through, with the goal of completing the course in the fastest time possible. Use the game’s mutants to help or hinder other runners as you try to race to the finish line.
But beware! There are many traps along the way and falling makes you die and start over.
1. Scuba Diving at Quill Lake
This game is almost TEN YEARS OLD and only has 123 active players still hanging on to it. The dev has announced that it has been cancelled, with no plans to further update the game as of October 2023. You can enter the remastered version of the game or enjoy the coastal challenges that are forever stuck in BETA.
This game is really reminiscent of Endless Ocean and other diving games. Keeping an eye on your oxygen levels, you can dive into the lake and search for treasure to take back to the pawn shop. When you’re rolling in coins, head over to Steve’s Scuba Gear shop to trade for new gear and tools that will help you when you’re diving.
I can see myself continuing to play this one, it’s my favorite game on the entire list.
