The current front page.
The Front Page is a common term for the games that appear when you click the "Games" link on ROBLOX (which can be seen here). Games shown here have the most players out of all the games on ROBLOX as of the current time. Badges are often made for this occasion of being on the front page.
The sort category "Relevance" - the default search parameter when on the front page -, was made to show games that are the most relevant based on your favorites and visits. To truly see the "front page games", the category search parameter should be set, as the relevance search parameter is misleading towards your preferences.
Controversy
The front page was heavily criticized over the years because:
- Most of the games on the front page are copied or false advertisements, which are misleading or fake, and not very fun.
- Most of the games are Roleplay games, which mostly filled with Online Dater.
