Roblox is a massively multiplayer online platform that allows users to create and design their own games and play a wide variety of different types of games created by other users [1]. Before the game became open to the public, it was originally named "Dynablocks" up until in early 2005 that David Baszucki and Eric Cassel (the founders of Roblox) decided to rename it to Roblox because of complications with the name of Dynablocks [2].

Although the current version of the game is still up and playable, the clients from 2005 and 2006 have been lost in the sands of time. The only builds (from pre-2010) that have been uncovered so far are from 2007, 2008, and 2009. While there has been only a handful of pictures and information from 2005 that have been discovered by the community, there has been no gameplay footage featured from this time period (nor an archive from the Roblox servers).

Other Information

If you are currently looking for any other builds from pre-2010, I'd highly suggest you check out the clientsearch blog on Tumblr. DirtPiper, the owner of the blog, has been searching for these clients since 2012 and he has made a complete download list of these builds[3]. CloneTrooper1019 has also made numerous Github repositories in the past that contains certain builds from Roblox.

If you've discovered a build that dates before 2007, please email the Finobe admins (at finobeofficial@gmail.com) or dirtpile (at dirtpiper@gmail.com).
