To make a story game on Roblox, one popular approach is to use Roblox Studio to create a multi-place game structure with a lobby and story areas (places). You publish the main game to Roblox, then create additional places for different parts of the story. You use scripting, especially Roblox's TeleportService, to teleport players from the lobby to the story places. Organizing the story using stages and dialogue scripts allows you to control the storytelling flow with sequences of messages or events in different stages of the game.

Basic Steps to Make a Story Game on Roblox

  • Open Roblox Studio and create a new game or open an existing project.
  • Design a lobby area where players initially arrive.
  • Publish your game to Roblox and create additional places for story parts via Asset Manager.
  • Make a script using TeleportService to teleport players from the lobby to the specific story places.
  • Structure the story in stages, each with dialogues or actions, and script each stage’s events.
  • Use modular scripts for story logic, teleportation, dialogues, and stage management.
  • Customize your map, characters, and story scenes in each place.

Example Details from Tutorials

  • Use a "Story Game Kit" or a pre-built model for foundational setup to save time on building.
  • Use the TeleportService API to create private servers for story places so players experience the story in groups.
  • Organize dialogue using nested tables or modules representing different stages and messages.
  • Publish and update your places often to ensure all content is saved on Roblox.
  • Connect the lobby and story places using their specific place IDs in scripts for teleportation.

This approach was clearly shown in tutorials from 2021 to 2025, including step-by-step video guides for coding teleport logic, story stage management, and game publishing on Roblox Studio.
