The cross-platform compatible app lets kids ages four and up play over 100 user-created levels, browse user-built models, and purchase user-crafted avatar clothing.

Currently, users on physics-based building system Roblox.com have created approximately 9.8 million levels and the site has around 7.4 million unique visitors per month.
