Moderated Game is Showing in Search Results

All needed info regarding this bug available for staff only. Here’s I provided general info.

I have found the game in search results and when you opening the game page it showing 404 that means the game possibly got moderated by Roblox moderators.
I decided to investigate this and used some API endpoints to try receive the additional info about the game. The search API gave me the place ID and https://apis.roblox.com/universes/v1/places/ID/universe successfully returned the universe ID that means the game exists.

Then i tried to receive some info by using the Universe ID and the https://games.roblox.com/v2/games/UID/media?fetchAllExperienceRelatedMedia=true returned The requested universe does not exist. and it’s weird.

The endpoint https://games.roblox.com/v1/games/votes?universeIds=UID successfully returned the votes of the game.

I don’t know how it’s happened because not all moderated games are showing in search results, I just found this one.

Expected behavior

The search API (and all API that related to games) shouldn’t return any info about deleted / moderated games.

Thanks for the report. We’ve properly taken down this game and it shouldn’t appear in search results anymore.

Thanks, I’ll mark this as a solution, but I’m not sure if this bug only applies to the game I provided. You can mark this fixed if everything is fine on your side now.
