Districts and Genre Zones

Players start the event by selecting one of four districts from the Clubhouse, entering zones themed around different genres:

• Strat University: Survival, Sports, Strategy, Roleplay, Obby.

  • Popular games: “Pressure,” “Tennis: Zero,” “SpongeBob Tower Defense,” “Dress To Impress,” “Barry’s Prison Run.”

• Adrenaline Heights: Action-packed, high-intensity games.

How to Participate: Clubhouse & Crews

The Tagtown/Clubhouse hub is a skateboard-filled, interactive playground where users meet, form teams, and customize their avatars. To take part:

• Visit the Tagtown or Clubhouse experience from the Roblox event portal.

• Create or join a crew at the recruitment center, customize your team’s logo and invite connections.

• Enter genre districts via themed portals and join featured games to start completing challenges.

Solo participation is supported, but team play yields bonus creds, daily quest multipliers, and prizes for first-completion of specific tasks.

Earning and Spending Creds

Creds are earned by completing event quests and are redeemed for avatar items only available during The Takeover. Players gain extras for:

• Firsts: Completing challenges before anyone else.

• Crew play: Group efforts yield more rewards.

• Daily quests and double creds days: Login bonuses and special multiplier periods.

Exclusive items—such as skateboards, jackets, graffiti headphones, and backpacks—will remain as collectibles after the event ends, memorializing each crew’s achievements.
