Is it legal to charge an entry fee to duel a random player?

Hi! I’m hoping to add a feature to my game where you pay a specific number of in-game credits (that can be purchased with Robux) in order to duel a random player.

If you win the duel, you get twice what you paid back, otherwise you get nothing back.

Is this considered to be a gambling/casino game, or is it considered to be a game of luck/chance that isn’t casino or gambling-based? Thanks!

Just use a in-game credit that you have to purchase with robux.

Do you have a link to Roblox documentation that says that I can do that?

No, but you’re allowed to have in-game currencies… just make one of them robux only to purchase. That’s how a lot of games do it. Use Bloxburg as an example.

The problem is that I want them to pay an entry fee to join a duel, then if they win they get it back. The concern is that it could be gambling according to moderation.

Just give them back the in-game currency. There is no way to return robux back without a sketchy-like method. Just focus on the in-game currency.

That’s still not the issue. Can I take away someone’s credits and then only return them if they win the duel? Or is that a casino game?

Take away a in-game credit, yes. Just make sure the player is aware of it or it might make some mad.

Roblox’s Community Standards prohibit gambling. How does this not full under that?

If you believe your game may not meet requirements, fill out the questionnaire associated with the game.

I think this falls in the category of paid item trading and not gambling as you are sure you get those credits, it’s just that you can lose them/ trade them.

I have seen the method be used in several front-page games, I have no doubt that the method is allowed. :slight_smile:
