Hundreds of games made by the community - shooters, roleplay, racing, platformers, horror, and stuff we don't even have a name for yet. No installing or subscribing, just click to play. Party up with your friends and they can play too, no need to mess around setting up servers.
Anyone can create games using our intuitive modern editor, creating scenes with a standard scene system and a C# API with powerful hotloading.
You can publish your games directly to the platform where everyone can play it at the click of a button.

Excellent engine for game development, but for just playing, this game is not ready yet. The game browser unfortunately features mostly low tier slop and AI slop, which is immediately off putting. I only recommend s&box for [b] game development [/b] in their engine, the current state of the game browser is unenjoyable, but overall s&box is promising (due to Facepunch Studio's history being Gmod and Rust). Maybe in 6 to 36 months, s&box will probably have a few very good games featured on the main menu that will bring in streamers, which then will bring in a player count of over 10,000 to 100,000. However for now, the general slop games alongside the low player count, I would not recommend s&box for general playing. But I do recommend s&box purely for game development in their engine.
крутой проект, мне жаль чурбанов которые не поняли что это не совсем просто игра.
Very fun! now that Roblox is run by a PEDO this scratches that itch it left in my heart AND the games are way better due to the fact that this game has a better algorithm and the audiance is going to be older. thank you facepunch!
game suq bad
this "game platform" needed a lot more time in the oven. it lags like crazy and crashes after like 5 minutes of gameplay. the game selection is absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, comprising of only ai slop casino games, copied and pasted clicker games and variations of the default sandbox game i had hope for s&box but it failed horribly being a buggy mess of ai slop. 2/10
dog butt
i don't really get the hate for this game just let it bake in the oven gmod wasn't very good when it first came out either, although performance can be a issue and the ai slop does not help.
The s&box editor is a very powerful tool utilizing a forked version of Valve's Source 2, but documentation can be a bit difficult to come across for a lot of use-cases (expected with the early entry of these sorts of platforms). When you consider buying this game, keep in mind that you are also buying this (which is likely the larger value add currently for your purchase). That being said, there are not currently too many great games on the platform yet. I do foresee this changing in time but its likely the main reason (besides performance, which the team has been chipping away at) for the poor review scores so far. I would say if you are a developer who wants to build games and experiences, the engine is all ready to jump into. If you want to buy this expecting Gmod 2, and a ton of already made experiences that are high quality I might wait. For me this title is worth the purchase as I want to get in on this early and develop my games as I think this platform has a lot of potential, but the value add is largely tied to the dev tools currently.
