Games mixing meme-style mechanics + casual/tower-defense loops (like Plants Vs Brainrots) — these tend to go viral quickly thanks to social media sharing. Often fun for short sessions or casual play.
Survival / horror games (co-op or solo) — games like 99 Nights in the Forest or Dandy’s World show that horror/survival remains a strong genre on Roblox. Look out for seasonal updates and new map releases.
Relaxed / idle / cozy games (like Grow a Garden) — for players who want something low-effort but long-term and rewarding. Good for casual play or social hangouts.
Classic & evergreen social / RP / community games — familiar titles like Brookhaven RP, Blox Fruits, Murder Mystery 2 or Tower of Hell remain relevant because of updates, community, and broad appeal.

“New” doesn’t always mean recently released — sometimes older games become popular again because of updates, trends, or social sharing.
Because Roblox relies heavily on user-generated content, many games are experimental or community-created; quality and stability can vary widely.
Popularity can shift quickly — a trending game today might be less played in a few months; always check in-game stats, player counts, or community feedback.
