My eleven-year-old daughter also loves Roblox. It sounds just the kind of platform Steem with its main currencies and SMTs as well as Scot tokens is made for. Roblox is a centralized platform and that comes with a risk of the company owning the platform going under. Steem is decentralized, which offers protection against that risk and also a true ownership of any digital assets on it. Suppose the developer of a game that uses Steem and smart contracts on Steem as the back end. The assets are stored as transactions (text) on the chain. A new developer may come a long and pick up from where the bankrupt one left any time because the transactions are not the property of the original developer and can be continued by the players with their private keys. If the back end of the game were decentralized with the game logic implemented as smart contracts and it were played using desktop or mobile clients instead of a website as the front ends, then there would be no third party dependencies. Just the assets and the players. All open source.
