Roblox’s current event, The Hatch, is being boycotted by several players amid child safety concerns, and the platform’s inclusion of a controversial creator in the Easter egg hunt. Roblox is an online gaming platform and game creation system founded by David Baszucki and Erik Cassel in 2004. Players gained access to the platform in 2006, where users could indulge in free-to-play games fueled by in-game purchases and create games too, for other users to experience.
