Roblox Raising Benchmark Stats Early

My game which averages around 2K DAU used to have horrible stats. However, I made some improvements and began running ads again. The stats went up somewhat, landing in atleast the 60th-70th percentile. Shortly after, I noticed that Roblox had raised my benchmark stats, bringing me back down.


I had never even hit the algorithm so it confuses me why Roblox is already trying to kill my game off. Should I keep advertising as long as my stats stay consistent (even if they are not hitting high percentiles since benchmarks were raised) or is it a waste of money?

I feel like all my work I put in to improving and advertising the game is just wasted, and I am scared the same will happen if I try to improve my stats again. (Roblox raising my benchmarks without even recommending my game to anyone)

My game: [šŸŽ] KAD! - Roblox

Also, my game is a multi player matchmaking game so it tends to get better statistics when there are more players. (8 min session time, 8%-9% retention) but it is hard to get those statistics up only relying on players from ads even when Iā€™m running ~15K Robux in ads everyday, so I desperately need to hit the algorithm.

Please let me know what I should do and why this is happening.

You have no chance my guy.


My stats are all very high and I usually canā€™t get over 60 or 50 CCU. You need to be in the 90th+ in EVERY SINGLE category to get over 100. Yeah RIP completely scuffed. How many pay to play clickbait can u get away with and decent mostly clickbaitā€¦

Probably your D1 retention, I know the stats I showed were lower but retention was high (atleast for a Monday)

Iā€™m so confused. Iā€™m looking at the game right now, 9 days after this was posted, and the game has dropped to ZERO players? How is that possible?

The only players my game gets are from ads. There was 2K dau yesterday. When the ad cycle is on, there are players, when it is off, there is 0 players. The game is not on the algorithm

If youā€™re talking about this, this is a separate game.

Whats your retention data sitting at for that game now that it has gone back up to 500 CCU?

My game is constantly at around 500 ccu so idk wym, but hereā€™s the retention


Also the game I was actually talking about which everyone is ignoring for some reason has gone down to average session time of 3.5 min and day 1 retention of 4%. I think there may be a bug because there are countless games in this format which have 500-10K ccu

Make 0 sense. I assume your genre is way less compettive seems like a factor. I only got 100 CCu
