Join a whole new experience where friend drama meets Roblox. An exciting evening for those who like to game, and for anyone who wants an action-packed family show about friendship, betrayal and the dark side of games. Gaia is the school's best at making games in Roblox. Confident and persuasive Axel invites her to join a Roblox project that will make them rich.
