I wanted to ask if its possible to create a game id with random nubmers and then print the game name? and if I would want to add so that you could join that game then would it be allowed? like is it allowed to do something like that in roblox or not? and is it even possible to do something like that?

As far as the game name:

local name = game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):GetProductInfo(GAME_ID).Name

As far as “could you join that game”: that would depend on how they set it up. If it was full public I’m sure you could.

local gameId = math.random(1000000000, 9999999999) -- Generate a random game ID
local gameInfo = game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):GetProductInfo(gameId, Enum.InfoType.Game)

if gameInfo then
    print("Game Name:", gameInfo.Name)
else
    print("Game not found.")
end

Please note that generating a random game ID does not guarantee that the game exists. The GetProductInfo function will return nil if the game with the specified ID does not exist.

while wait(3) do
	local gameId = math.random(m,m) -- Generate a random game ID
	local gameInfo = game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):GetProductInfo(7041939546)

	if gameInfo then
		print("Game Name:", gameInfo.Name)
		print(gameId)
	else
		print("Game not found.")
	end
end

Here you go this works, just change the 7041939546 with you random number

local gameInfo=game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):GetProductInfo(gameId, Enum.InfoType.Game)

Comes out as … Game is not a valid member of “Enum.InfoType”

local gameInfo=game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):GetProductInfo(gameId)

Comes out with a table holding the game information.
What you’re looking for is: (with a random number of course)

local gameInfo=game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):GetProductInfo(gameID)
local gameName=(gameInfo["Name"])
print(gameName)

You may also call a asset with a random number and not a game.
This is how you can check for that…

local assetId = "gameID"
local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local productInfo = MarketplaceService:GetProductInfo(assetId)

if productInfo and productInfo.AssetTypeId == 9 then
	print("Asset is a game")
else print("Asset is not a game")
end
