Playing games with your crew is always a fun way to spend a Friday night (or any night), but if you can't all be together IRL, it can get tricky. Thankfully, there are plenty of ways to get together virtually, and Roblox is one of the best options to connect with all your besties right on your phone. If you're just getting started in the platform, here are some of the best Roblox games to play with friends for your next virtual game night.

Roblox isn't a new platform — the online gaming service launched in 2006 — but the community has grown since its initial release. As more people are looking for games to play with their friends during quarantine, Roblox definitely is a new go-to option. To start playing for free, you can download the app for iOS or Android, or play it using the computer platform. Those with an Xbox One console can also play Roblox from there. Once you've downloaded or logged on, you'll need to create an account. From there, you can customize your avatar if you'd like and start playing. The games are free to play, but there is an in-platform currency called Robux that you can purchase to use for in-game items or avatar upgrades.

Before scheduling a game night, though, make sure you and your friends create an account and add each other to your friend's list. That way, it'll be a lot easier to start. Then start a game and your friends can join your game by heading to your profile and selecting 'Join Game.' Make sure you (and your friends) have the join in-game settings enabled.
