Reception

Although, the general concept, prizes, and objectives of the three picked games were well-received. Many players criticized that 10 of the 18 prizes were simply earned by walking through doors in the game lobby, and 7 out of the 10 games only rewarded a prize for walking through their respective doors without any additional challenges.

Individual objectives in the games were criticized too; some players found the maze in Robloxian Highschool to be difficult as it was randomly-generated on each server and held a few monsters that sent players back to the start if touched.

Escape Room's objectives and its new map Twilight Manor, suffered moderate lag and several bugs such as the book puzzle not working.

Darkenmoor has also been criticized due to the spawn rate of the Lure being very low, and many people would be trying to get it at the same time. Another criticism was of the horde mode, which was unfair for inexperienced players.

A small factor that got the event criticized was the lack of BLOXtober gifts like 2017, but again, new items in the long-lasting Vlad the Impaler and Sinister lines were added on the catalog.
