Bandar, the city game with a Malaysian twist

Hibiscus Studios, an affiliate of the Malaysia of Roblox projects team is proud to announce the official development of our highly-anticipated adaptation of Kuala Lumpur: Bandar.


Background

Overview

Bandar (“City” in Malay, pronounced bahn-dar) is a city game incorporating mainstay elements of the genre such as jobs, public transport, vehicles, and residences.

What makes this game unique is the environment it takes place in; Kuala Lumpur, the capital city of the South-East Asian nation Malaysia.

Built in an authentic style, Kuala Lumpur is known as the city of contrasts and diversity; featuring a mix of traditional and modern architecture, unlike many other cities found on the Roblox platform.
