Hello!
I am currently working on a game unfortunately I am not going to reveal its name, but It will be like jailbreak, madcity and I was wondering if this game will probably fail, I am not putting pictures as I don’t want my work to be stolen I know it’s not a lot of info but for guis I have a designer thanks! - Xero

The game may not fail if you put a lot of effort on it but could if you don’t put a lot effort on it.

Most likely it will fail since it has alot of competition. Maybe use a discord to show new peaks of updates, and have a suggestion chat to see what the players want.

Depends, if you make it very similar to Jailbreak/Mad City it will probably be, but if you add a lot of unicity it will be great!

depends mainly on the gameplay mechanics and how it will attract people, most of the time, repeated games of the same genre that include the same concept like other game most of the time will fail, depends on the community it gets too
for example, Venture Tale is literally Dungeon Quest in alot of aspects, the concept is the same, now has a few concurrent players, if Dungeon quest dind’t existed, it would be original and unique, however this has more things to explain , the problem is, depending on the game, you expect something more, if Venture tale has open world exploration like vesteria and world zero i’m quite sure it would be kinda more popular, also the content
anyway there is alot of stuff to check before judging a game, it’s really hard nowadays because anything random gets popular if any SUPER popular livestreamer plays it, however it will die if they stop playing it ( somehow)
you see, how pilgrammed, rogue lineage ( that dind’t died until now and has like 600+ players )
and deepwoken has a good amount of players is because they have decent combat system and world exploration so the players can explore and be what they wish to, having different paths ( you never will be the same )

There really is not definitive way to tell if a game is going to fail or not, anyone who says otherwise is just wrong. The way games rise to the top on Roblox has always been a mystery to me. Some of it might be pure luck. However, if you have a good, solid, polished game with fun mechanics, etc. Then you should have a pretty good shot at making a successful game.
Good luck!

One word. Advertising.
If you have any robux, try to advertise at least 3 different ads, see which one does the best, and fund that ad more.
If your looking for an option that would be cheaper/free, try opening up a discord server or YouTube channel like the users above me suggested. It may not give you much at first, but it will most likely get you a few players.
And also, keep the game updated. Players love to come back and see new things. It engages them with your game.
You can also try making a group for the game, if you don’t have one already. It will help build up a player base. Try to get some of your friends to join. They would help make the group look more appealing.
Hope this helped!
