Use Roblox Analytics to Improve Your Game

Open the right reports#

Select your experience in Creator Dashboard and open Analytics. Available reports depend on your permissions and the data available for the experience.

Choose a clear time period. Retention, engagement, acquisition, and monetization describe different parts of the experience; a rise in one does not explain every other result.

Start with a player question#

Pair a report with something you can observe:

• Players leave early: can a newcomer find and complete the first activity?
• Players do not return: is there a meaningful next goal after the first session?
• Friends struggle together: can each person join and understand the shared objective?
• A shop gets complaints: does the described benefit arrive and remain available as promised?

For a courier game, completing the first delivery is a more useful debugging target than simply adding more buildings.

Compare like with like#

Record update dates and compare similar periods and acquisition sources. A promotion can bring a different audience, which can change results independently of a gameplay repair.

Benchmarks can highlight questions, but they are not guarantees. Read our discovery guide for acquisition context or monetization guide for purchase design.

Make one focused revision#

Write the expected result before asking PromptBlox for the change. Keep unrelated systems stable so the next test is easier to interpret.

New players in my courier game cannot find the first delivery destination. Add a readable world marker and one short objective hint after pickup.

Preserve the existing route, city, rewards, inventory, and movement controls. Make the hint fit a phone-sized screen without covering steering controls. Remove or update the marker when the delivery completes.

Provide a test sequence from pickup through delivery and a second attempt after respawning. Do not redesign the rest of the progression.

Verify before interpreting#

Complete the revised loop in Studio, then observe the published version over a defined period. Write down both what improved and what remains uncertain.

If you need a custom event for a specific action, request and verify that instrumentation separately. Check that the event represents the intended action and is not emitted repeatedly by accident. A visible counter in a generated HUD is not proof of analytics tracking.

Keep private player information out of debugging prompts and shared notes.
