I’m currently learning about the different player type using bartle’s framework. I’m curious to know what roblox games appeal very well with achievers so i can learn more from there. I know adopt me is one which has achievers as the primary player type. Anyone familiar with any others? Would love to hear your suggestions!
Generally you’ll find that most experiences on Roblox fit the Achievers quadrant of the Bartle Player Types chart if you aren’t applying a strict set of criteria. Most experiences present this in the form of badges and completion leaderboards and encourage the player to collect them all.
I would make a case that Adopt Me caters more to the Socialising type than Achievers. Generally yes you are going to be achieving something in Adopt Me which is probably cooler and rarer pets (assuming this is the main aim, I have not played Adopt Me) but most of their features are geared towards connecting players all over the world to interact with each other, show off their inventories and play around in the world.
You can look at a variety of experience genres to find Achievers types. Here’s a few:
Dungeon Quest is probably the most prominent example of catering to the Achievers player type so it’d be a crime not to mention it. Dungeon Quest is a dungeon-crawling simulator that’s entirely based around repetitive clearing of dungeons to get better gear or stats (as stats are assigned randomly for dropped loot) to be able to tackle higher-level dungeons. You’re always looking to better optimise your gear for maximum damage output to be ready for the next challenge.
The Mimic is a singleplayer/cooperative story-driven horror experience that has badges for each chapter you complete. There is a mirroring set of badges for completing chapters in Nightmare mode (one life and difficulty increased) which also award you cosmetics to show off in the lobby or use in-game. Special events also have badges that grant cosmetics.
Entry Point is a singleplayer/cooperative story-driven stealth/action FPS that has badges for each mission and a respective difficulty (up to 5 difficulties and 3 badges dividing each difficulty cohort). Achievers will look to collect these badges for completeness and showing off their skill at tackling the challenges presented by each difficulty.
Anime Dimensions Simulator is a party-based dungeon crawler that puts its achievements in how many characters and costumes you’ve collected as well as the milestones you reach with certain activities. These achievements give you certain boosts (e.g. extra damage against a boss) which in turn allow you to have greater success when tackling dungeons and boss raids. There are also game modes that challenge your ability against time. To name two examples: how many enemies you can kill in 10 minutes and how quickly you can defeat three boss fights.
