*CORRECTIONS:* 1) HopperBins technically stopped working in early 2014, as server-side support for them was removed to fix a vulnerability. They were removed for good in October 2015, though. It's funny to me how long they lasted, as they were initially added to Roblox in March 2005 during development, long before release.
For Twisted Murderer, there is still a very loyal fanbase to the game (mostly rich or people from the era of Twisted Murderer's peak; they usually dress up as 2015-2017 players), where if you search up the game, there will most likely be a server that people will still play! The same could be said for the Quarry too! (But it's less noticeable)
Dead Roblox games are the definition of mysterious. You have some old games that are actually bad, but some old mysterious games with lore like The Normal City.
Why are you doing this? I genuinely want to now what pushes you to comment so badly yet so frequently, trying to gain useless clout. But what's the point?
Seeing Kingdom Life 2 in this video was such a shock to me!! It was a huge part of my childhood and I was in the official discord server when the news broke of what DevBuckette had done. I had *no idea* that Dev hadn't been the original creator! I'm so greatful to watch videos like this and learn stuff like that! ps. The game is getting updates still from different devs! It's just under the name Kingdom Tales now so that Dev doesn't get any of the profits :]
I remember the terrors of the discord, i got a ton of notifications and just watched everything go down. Im pretty sure the game got a few more updates after 2013 tho lol. There's tons of other games that just copied the game. One has all the game passes for free now too. Really great to see the community take things back and dominate.
@@undervv I remember as a kid, I would be a baby red dragon and close my eyes and pretend i was blind. Good days, so sad to hear it was a stolen game after so long.

seeing a game once-enjoyed now barren gives off a sort of nostalgic abandoned feeling. as if youve stumbled upon something humanity has moved on from and now left abandoned. it feels like it goes for most media too, like old 2000s shows with dead communities. maybe im weird but it does gives off a large nostalgic feeling even if i didnt experience the history while it was popular im probably crazy lol

watching these videos always gives me flashbacks of games i've played but just completely forgot throughout my 12 years on the platform. thank you for the amount of effort put into bringing these memories back^^
My favorite game as a kid was something called “hunters life” or something like that, it was surprisingly interactive. It was an RPG game with quests from back in like 2012-2014.
Yes!! It also had a family aspect where you could get married and have kids too, right? Or am I thinking of a different game. I’ve been trying to find it lately.
I know what you’re talking about! They had made multiple Hunters life 2, 3, apparently I believe Roblox kept either banning him or shutting down the game for innapropriate content and the creator struggled to get Roblox to open it back up (as there was nothing innapropriate) but I may be wrong, somewhat.
There are actually several games I remember big TH-camrs like EthanGamerTV playing that slowly started to die out in terms of popularity, whether it's because of games simply becoming more popular, or the games simply not working at all (chances of the latter happening are slim.) I remember really liking these games due to their appealing visuals and fun mechanisms, and playing them a ton with some of my friends. I honestly hope these games experience a resurgance in Roblox's current state, since there needs to be more people playing classics like Fisticuffs, Eat or Die, Make a Cake for the Giant Noob (and it's Noob-missing counterpart, Make a Cake...) etc.
I remember back then there was a game based off the Dominus. There were several areas and there would be enemies and swords based off of it. Of course, progress wouldn’t save, but I might be crazy. I wish I could go back and find it…
Thanks for covering Zeekerss' games. I didn't know so many good games (it steals, lethal company) were all made by the same person. and i really enjoyed playing A Lucid Dream back then
It's sad to see someone's game which used to be popular in 2007-2010 now nearly lost to time. Also, for my early 2018 people, who remembers Psycho Cats and MAD Paintball 2? I Remember playing these back in the day, they are just now empty games.
Mad Murder and Twisted Murderer were some of the old Roblox games I played almost 24/7 back in 2015/16. It sucks that both games don't work well at all anymore :(
note: greenwood town had in it a secret, which was a secret torture chamber and a Ghost who wanders under the city. if i recall well, both secrets got removed
23:14 This reminds me of another old game that was similar to this, but I forgot the name of it. It was a mystery type of game, where you have to find out who's it. The person who's it would look like a normal player at first but can switch to a purple ghost and kill others. The normal players would have to find out who's it, take a picture of the person in their ghost form using a camera, and upload it to a computer before getting killed. This was a really fun game, and I hope someone else remembers it.

Thanks Toast, you got me reminissing of a few games along the video. Also. Does anyone else remember "Roblox Mythology: Birth of Roblox" by BillyYank? I miss that one.
Fisticuffs is a big part of my Roblox childhood, i remember hopping on to play it after school and always raging a bunch then leaving it, then repeating the cycle. Im gonna be honest, i shed a big o'l tear ever since i found it again from this video. Thanks toasted.
Battle of titans was an rpg game which is a sequel to a game that was really popular called fight the monsters. In the game you fought these beast monsters which are wearing package costumes from Roblox catalog that are fully animated, fight bosses, make money, and buy better gear. It is super simple but I played it a lot when I was younger and it used to be popular and fun. The game is still fully playable with a few quirks and small bugs from updates. It even has lore that is unfinished but quite fun. The game does not get updates because the creator, parlus was banned through scamming limited items and other controversies. The game had awesome music but with the Roblox audio update only the last three areas outside of the city zones still work and it’s undertail remixed music. The ones that are missing are some legend of Zelda: ocarina of time song of storms original versions and remix versions, and some other songs that I don’t know of. This game was something I played a lot and it still mostly works and there’s a few players who join every once in a while to re-live memories like me. The first game before it called fight the monsters has a similar concept except it’s much simpler but monsters you kill are killable in a certain order from the weapon drops they give with the final boss being the game creator in a korblox outfit with insane amounts of health. The save mechanism in the original fight the monsters is broken but there are remakes of it with the saving working. Fight the monsters usually has at least 3 people on it at all times. Battle of titans gets about 3 people a day on a generous average.
OH MY GOD! this video helped me find Fisticuffs, which was an old game I played a very long time ago. 😭 I thought it didn’t exist when it lost popularity and it was some weird memory I knew I wasn’t crazy I’m like, 3 months late to this video but this is awesome, and finding a childhood game of mine earns a sub from me
Dead/abandoned Roblox games have always been so interesting to me like at one point it was at the front page but now less than 5 people are ever active it's interesting to see how popular things fall into obscurity over time
ioh my god i used to lovee kingdom life 2 and for YEARS ive been searching for it bc i forgot the name ... im genuinely in tears its so nostalgic i miss it
There are 2 old Roblox horror games that I've pretty much given up on finding, since they were neither very popular or from any big accounts. But imo they were both very striking to me as a kid, which is why I remember details about them even now. I think this was around 2010-2012? I remember Hard Rock Cafe being active and popular at the time, if that helps. The first was (probably) an entry in the scary mansion contest, it wasn't the winner nor was it any of the mansions toastedcherries talked about in previous videos. From my memory, it was a large grey mansion on a dirt hill, surrounded on all sides by a sparse forest. If anyone remembers that semi-popular old "ghost hunters" game, it functioned kind of like that. Go around the map, and at various locations there would be scripted scares. Even outside in the forest, there would be ghosts that would appear in trees. I remember a bedroom inside that, upon going up to a painting, trapped you in the room (or inside the painting? not sure) and displayed a jumpscare image. I make it sound cheesy, but it was genuinely well-crafted for the time it was made, with lots of cool scripted events and moving parts. The second, I don't remember much. All I know is that it had jeeps that up to 4 players could fit in and drive around the map in. There was a large open area which necessitated the jeeps, and a more-detailed forest(?) area that you dealt with on-foot. I believe there was a sort of "hub area" when you got off the jeep, with scary locations in the other 3 directions. But in the hub area, there was a broken-down house (or tower?) that I still remember because it scared the bejesus out of me. When you went inside, a pitch-black entity would appear and chase you around, damaging you. Little kid me didn't even know at the time that enemies could just spawn in like that (I was very young), so that really got me. The other areas? I don't really remember... I think one was a giant green maze or something, with various scary stuff hidden inside? Another might've been a haunted shack? The "hub" might not have even been a hub area at all, just one of many zones that linked together. I think I quit after the shadow figure jumpscare.
Speaking of horror games, bummed out Zombie Tower wasn't mentioned under zombie games! It was a really great zombie survival game that was also extremely difficult. Each round you'd start at the base of a ginormous tower, and work your way up with other players. It had zombie bosses too, and I remember when the tower got new floors and bosses added pretty regularly until it was complete. It's broken now of course, but videos exist of people completing the whole thing.
i haven’t completely finished the video but there’s a remake of that old game “the normal roblox elevator” or whatever that includes that teapot game as one of the floors! the remake is called regretevator
you have more knowledge in old roblox and lore than I do, and I've been playing roblox for over a decade. i only have knowledge of roblox since 2012 lol keep up the great content
This video makes me feel old. I played more than a few of these games back in their time. In every segment, I'd lean forwards in my seat like that Leonardo DiCaprio meme. There was a game I used to play all the time by Kitteh6660, Haunted Hotel Roleplay. There isn't much documentation regarding its later updates. Last I know, Kitteh wanted to remaster the game but I think they've moved on from Roblox now.
I know a game that I played a lot. Its not old. Its from 2018 or something, it has 100M+ visits, but now there's noone active. Its called "High School" by Melonslice and it's a horror game. I'd like to play it again, but it's impossible without other people.
It's so weird to say as im only sixteen but some of these games were literally my childhood, Like vamp hunters 2 (I visited again around two years ago and made a few friends), Twisted murder, and Roblox Highschool were like all i played with my sister and cousins
Speaking of dead Roblox games, there was a favorite of mine that slowly died due to another game's popularity. It's called Fighters by Berzerk Studios but I forgot what exactly was the developer studio's name is. It died simply because Black Magic was far more nuanced and accessible, although I liked Fighters better since it was easier to get into. Another was the Legacy series which was a series of RPGs. I think these series of games died cause of its playerbase growing up and not having more time to play as well as a lack of updates. Then there were the fighting story based games that I've forgotten the titles of. One of them involved classes and an evolving narrative similar to how he old Left 4 Dead games did in Roblox, but there was another that was a sci-fi fps that had a story mode and a pvp mode. I find that a lot of story based Roblox games were abandoned and not outright died cause of disinterest due to game breaking updates to the studio. The Gladiators series of games was one that I was fond of too back then. I often look back on these games and remember how niche Roblox was, before 3D assets were introduced and UGC not being a thing yet. A lot of creativity went into those games and although there are good games out there, the front page doesn't usually show the innovative or unique 'experiences' that we otherwise would've gotten in the years before 2019, thus leading to not a lot of players knowing about them.
I don't know if you ever talked about this game in the past, but you should someday check out this old game called Adventure Forward: Star Savior. I loved that game, it was a Mario inspired Roblox obby game with a lot of charm to it and really well made levels.
Ay wanted to say that there still is a version of Kingdom Life 2!! Someone took the code from the Dev Bucket version and is slowly adding their own things!
Dude Fisticuffs was one of my favorite games when I was younger. I play it every once in a while with my friends and it's so sad to see it so empty especially since I remember how popular it used to be. Glad to see it get some recognition in this video!
One of the dead games is Pirate Wars by Pudinzo too. The game was created in 2010 and was once popular on Roblox, but currently no one plays it. The game consists of two teams - blue and red pirates whose task is to fight each other. In the game you can spawn boats and collect treasure, which is the in-game currency for which you can buy gravity coils and bombs. I remember when I played Pirate Wars back in 2018 and 2020-2021 and 100-200 people played it and now practically no one. Apparently the game used to be one of the most popular games on Roblox. There is also a new, refreshed part of Pirate Wars that some players are playing. It is Pirate Wars but with new things and different mechanics that are not available in classic Pirate Wars. Apparently there is to be another, newer part of Pirate Wars, which is in the testing phase
Some good games to talk about for another video if you were to make one are Explode1's adventure games like AF and Paper Roblox, some JToH fangames (TNZT/GNZT, TNP:R, etc) that were popular in the community for a bit, Shovelware's "Brickbattle Blast!", and zKevin's "Blamo".
OH MY GODS WELCOME TO THE TOWN OF ROBLOXIA BY 1Dev2!!! i played it SO much as a kid and one day after i stopped playing roblox altogether i discovered it being dead and gone. ah well, it was fun while it lasted i also played (the stolen) kingdom life 2 a TON and buaaah i loved it so much but never knew it was stolen. there was also a few other games including one made by roblox where you could build stuff in a room and there was a robot npc that walked around- you also had a statue of yourself if you had the most points or smthin. i remember making a rudimentary zekrom and took a screenshot of it, it’s long gone now, unfortunately :( and then there was survive the 97 disasters (now known as survive the disasters classic) which was one of the most popular games when i first started playing, and you can still play it nowadays but of course it’s not as popular anymore and quite a few of the disasters are beyond broken now. there was also a game my brother and i played which was like “survive the creepers” or smthin, and you had to build giant structures to try and survive creepers blowing them up, and if you died you’d become a creeper. it scared me a bit but was really fun and when the creepers attacked the game played sephiroth’s theme OH AND THE QUARRY!!! i loved the quarry when it was still popular. i loved it so so so much there was also another game i remember, it was a hide and seek in a giant house and i loved playing it, but it’s no longer playable. wish it was still around because it was genuinely really fun
A dead Roblox game I remember playing all the time back in the day was called “Space Knights”, it recently got a reboot, which went nowhere unfortunately. It gets no players, besides maybe me, if you ever see someone named “Jackson1222”, that’s me
Gods, being on roblox since 2010 this video brought back a huge bit of nostalgia for all the old and now lost games I used to play as a kid. So many games I had vivid memories of like this crappy pokemon rpg or this spongebob battle game that had genuine effort put in them are just completely lost and unarchived. Reminds me of when the staff thought it would be a good idea to bring back the idea of the crafting system back in like 2016 and failed miserably when they realized it would brick the catalog. Why am I mentioning this random tidbit? Because most of these old games I played as a kid are becoming lost to time just like obscure info like that. Wonder why they don't care about older games now, most are bloody hidden from search results.
Watching this vid gave me the urge to dump some random old screen recordings from 2012 I've had lying around after realizing how many old games don't have any surviving footage
ToastedCherries is one of those rare TH-cam gems. Small but loyal fanbase, doesn’t go over the top, but puts in obvious effort, always makes good content, and is just chill in general. I guess I’m just tryna say I love your channel man. Keep it up!
i'm surprised that Undead Nation or Protect Telamon from Zombies haven't been mentioned in this series yet, they're both games that were once pretty popular but have since become abandoned
It died because of hackers holding the game hostage - they were crashing the game, and the only way to get around the crashing was buying a t-shirt from them and wearing it. But even then, that was just a scam. Sad thing is that some people actually bought it and was expecting to be able to play again.
@@Ursaross the group was catalog hell yes and no; shirt did work for a time since the bot the group used detected those wearing the shirt and would leave w/o crashing, and it wouldn't revisit a server again so long as it detected a shirt once, letting folk play the game (there was even proof vids) but then eventually changed the system to just spawn kill everyone instead of crashing, on top of rejoining servers, making the experience arguably worse catalog hell played a part in killing the game, but the purpose was to get seranok to notice and update the game, and it worked; a lot of the worst glitches were patched with the *help* of the lead scripter of catalog hell
12:22 Fun fact about Zeek, he was featured in Pokemon Brick Bronze as the 7th gym's gym leader, his gym recreates his iconic 2d monotone style and he specializes in Dark type, which Pokemon has never done until Sword and Sheild.
Ahh, I remember the days of the Original Kingdom Life II. A lot of it generally hinged on sweaty PVP, but there was actual roleplay reasons as to why a lot of it hinged on sweaty PVP.
I used to play undertale fangames on roblox, one had someone be the monster and had to kill all the players as different undertale characters, another was a roleplay game but it broke, and finally a undertale game where you had to fight bosses but it slowly died out.

loving that you put LEASE in your videos and reminds me of how refreshing and simple playing roblox was back in the early-mid 2010s
im so glad that some of the games i used to play as a kid are still semi-popular (the og roblox highschool, make a cake: back for seconds, etc)
Oh my god thank you for reminding me of Fisticuffs! I played it so much during 2016 and 2017 you brought back so many nostalgic memories.
OH MY GOD! this video helped me find Fisticuffs, which was an old game I played a very long time ago. 😭 I thought it didn’t exist when it lost popularity and it was some weird memory I knew I wasn’t crazy
I’m like, 3 months late to this video but this is awesome, and finding a childhood game of mine earns a sub from me
Dead/abandoned Roblox games have always been so interesting to me like at one point it was at the front page but now less than 5 people are ever active it's interesting to see how popular things fall into obscurity over time
i love this series so much! This one seems like it’ll be really good!
Anyone remember a 2016 game where you had to use your arms to climb a rock wall before the lava caught up to you
No
ioh my god i used to lovee kingdom life 2 and for YEARS ive been searching for it bc i forgot the name ... im genuinely in tears its so nostalgic i miss it
KINGDOM LIFE I & II AND ROBLOXAVILLE MENTIONED!! IM SO GLAD YOU MENTIONED THOSE GAMES
There are 2 old Roblox horror games that I've pretty much given up on finding, since they were neither very popular or from any big accounts. But imo they were both very striking to me as a kid, which is why I remember details about them even now. I think this was around 2010-2012? I remember Hard Rock Cafe being active and popular at the time, if that helps.
The first was (probably) an entry in the scary mansion contest, it wasn't the winner nor was it any of the mansions toastedcherries talked about in previous videos. From my memory, it was a large grey mansion on a dirt hill, surrounded on all sides by a sparse forest. If anyone remembers that semi-popular old "ghost hunters" game, it functioned kind of like that. Go around the map, and at various locations there would be scripted scares. Even outside in the forest, there would be ghosts that would appear in trees. I remember a bedroom inside that, upon going up to a painting, trapped you in the room (or inside the painting? not sure) and displayed a jumpscare image.
I make it sound cheesy, but it was genuinely well-crafted for the time it was made, with lots of cool scripted events and moving parts.
The second, I don't remember much. All I know is that it had jeeps that up to 4 players could fit in and drive around the map in. There was a large open area which necessitated the jeeps, and a more-detailed forest(?) area that you dealt with on-foot. I believe there was a sort of "hub area" when you got off the jeep, with scary locations in the other 3 directions. But in the hub area, there was a broken-down house (or tower?) that I still remember because it scared the bejesus out of me. When you went inside, a pitch-black entity would appear and chase you around, damaging you. Little kid me didn't even know at the time that enemies could just spawn in like that (I was very young), so that really got me.
The other areas? I don't really remember... I think one was a giant green maze or something, with various scary stuff hidden inside? Another might've been a haunted shack? The "hub" might not have even been a hub area at all, just one of many zones that linked together. I think I quit after the shadow figure jumpscare.
Speaking of horror games, bummed out Zombie Tower wasn't mentioned under zombie games! It was a really great zombie survival game that was also extremely difficult. Each round you'd start at the base of a ginormous tower, and work your way up with other players. It had zombie bosses too, and I remember when the tower got new floors and bosses added pretty regularly until it was complete. It's broken now of course, but videos exist of people completing the whole thing.
26:24 dude i remember playing that game when i was younger, i even have pictures of me playing it in 2019
Club nyonic would've been a good addition to the town and city part
I remember seeing Zeekerss’ parkour games way back when. It’s incredible how far he’s come! Such a talented dev.
pandemonium looks so fun from these short little background videos that it makes me want to learn lua and remake it myself.
Great video!! Definitely checking out the rest of your series. Way nostalgic
Don't Blink was so much fun back in the day
God i joined in 2011, you bringing up lost memories and such i remember literally all the games to 2011-2016
i haven’t completely finished the video but there’s a remake of that old game “the normal roblox elevator” or whatever that includes that teapot game as one of the floors! the remake is called regretevator
regretevator isn't a "remake" of the normal elevator, it's just in the same genre =_=
you have more knowledge in old roblox and lore than I do, and I've been playing roblox for over a decade. i only have knowledge of roblox since 2012 lol
keep up the great content
KAT is gonna end up on this series eventually lol
Oh no bro
Hopefully
I miss that game bruh
The fact that zeekerss went from a Roblox dev to creating one of the most popular games currently online is crazy
yall remember midnight snack attack
i was hoping possession would be mentioned, but the fact six flags was as well made me so happy bro
BRO fisticuffs is the first game i played in roblox back in 2016, that game is a gem
This video makes me feel old. I played more than a few of these games back in their time. In every segment, I'd lean forwards in my seat like that Leonardo DiCaprio meme.
There was a game I used to play all the time by Kitteh6660, Haunted Hotel Roleplay. There isn't much documentation regarding its later updates. Last I know, Kitteh wanted to remaster the game but I think they've moved on from Roblox now.
I know a game that I played a lot. Its not old. Its from 2018 or something, it has 100M+ visits, but now there's noone active. Its called "High School" by Melonslice and it's a horror game. I'd like to play it again, but it's impossible without other people.
Let’s dew it
Let's dew it
It's so weird to say as im only sixteen but some of these games were literally my childhood, Like vamp hunters 2 (I visited again around two years ago and made a few friends), Twisted murder, and Roblox Highschool were like all i played with my sister and cousins
Fun fact: kingdom life 2 is still around just being maintained by aetheris its now called re:kingdom life
Good to know. The video gave me the impression it was totally dead.
thankyou for finding contamination ive been looking for that game for almost a decade one of my all time favorites
Speaking of dead Roblox games, there was a favorite of mine that slowly died due to another game's popularity. It's called Fighters by Berzerk Studios but I forgot what exactly was the developer studio's name is. It died simply because Black Magic was far more nuanced and accessible, although I liked Fighters better since it was easier to get into.
Another was the Legacy series which was a series of RPGs. I think these series of games died cause of its playerbase growing up and not having more time to play as well as a lack of updates.
Then there were the fighting story based games that I've forgotten the titles of. One of them involved classes and an evolving narrative similar to how he old Left 4 Dead games did in Roblox, but there was another that was a sci-fi fps that had a story mode and a pvp mode. I find that a lot of story based Roblox games were abandoned and not outright died cause of disinterest due to game breaking updates to the studio.
The Gladiators series of games was one that I was fond of too back then.
I often look back on these games and remember how niche Roblox was, before 3D assets were introduced and UGC not being a thing yet. A lot of creativity went into those games and although there are good games out there, the front page doesn't usually show the innovative or unique 'experiences' that we otherwise would've gotten in the years before 2019, thus leading to not a lot of players knowing about them.
This is one of my favorite series, please make #4 and games that refuse to die #3
I don't know if you ever talked about this game in the past, but you should someday check out this old game called Adventure Forward: Star Savior. I loved that game, it was a Mario inspired Roblox obby game with a lot of charm to it and really well made levels.
Me: “Whoa this is a very awesome sauce vide-“ [12:29] “IS THAT ERASER FROM BFDI-“
Ay wanted to say that there still is a version of Kingdom Life 2!! Someone took the code from the Dev Bucket version and is slowly adding their own things!
Dude Fisticuffs was one of my favorite games when I was younger. I play it every once in a while with my friends and it's so sad to see it so empty especially since I remember how popular it used to be. Glad to see it get some recognition in this video!
12:31 this asset tho
a lot of the dead roblox games you described are pretty old, however i could give you a whole list of more recent games that have been abandoned
0:16 can you please give a link to this video?
9:35 idk know why i love the ... you can be a turkey
I use to play vampire hunters during 2017 even tho the game average around 10-30 players but It was fun
One of the dead games is Pirate Wars by Pudinzo too.
The game was created in 2010 and was once popular on Roblox, but currently no one plays it.
The game consists of two teams - blue and red pirates whose task is to fight each other. In the game you can spawn boats and collect treasure, which is the in-game currency for which you can buy gravity coils and bombs.
I remember when I played Pirate Wars back in 2018 and 2020-2021 and 100-200 people played it and now practically no one.
Apparently the game used to be one of the most popular games on Roblox.
There is also a new, refreshed part of Pirate Wars that some players are playing. It is Pirate Wars but with new things and different mechanics that are not available in classic Pirate Wars. Apparently there is to be another, newer part of Pirate Wars, which is in the testing phase
I remember playing some of these games. Sad to see them go or break, either way they are still some great memories, Great video btw.
Welcome to the town of robloxia was the best thing ever. I never made friends off it though, but i loved it SOO much.
Some good games to talk about for another video if you were to make one are Explode1's adventure games like AF and Paper Roblox, some JToH fangames (TNZT/GNZT, TNP:R, etc) that were popular in the community for a bit, Shovelware's "Brickbattle Blast!", and zKevin's "Blamo".
I dont think jtoh fangames were ever alive
@@exotic1405 JToH fangames are one of those games that were popping off during quarantine, but afterward just died.
OH MY GODS WELCOME TO THE TOWN OF ROBLOXIA BY 1Dev2!!!
i played it SO much as a kid and one day after i stopped playing roblox altogether i discovered it being dead and gone. ah well, it was fun while it lasted
i also played (the stolen) kingdom life 2 a TON and buaaah i loved it so much but never knew it was stolen.
there was also a few other games including one made by roblox where you could build stuff in a room and there was a robot npc that walked around- you also had a statue of yourself if you had the most points or smthin. i remember making a rudimentary zekrom and took a screenshot of it, it’s long gone now, unfortunately :(
and then there was survive the 97 disasters (now known as survive the disasters classic) which was one of the most popular games when i first started playing, and you can still play it nowadays but of course it’s not as popular anymore and quite a few of the disasters are beyond broken now.
there was also a game my brother and i played which was like “survive the creepers” or smthin, and you had to build giant structures to try and survive creepers blowing them up, and if you died you’d become a creeper. it scared me a bit but was really fun and when the creepers attacked the game played sephiroth’s theme
OH AND THE QUARRY!!! i loved the quarry when it was still popular. i loved it so so so much
there was also another game i remember, it was a hide and seek in a giant house and i loved playing it, but it’s no longer playable. wish it was still around because it was genuinely really fun
Anyone else remember Grow and Raise an Epic Doge, Bake a Cake, or Survive the Disasters
epic doge: idk, never played it
bake a cake: sorta alive
survive the disasters: alive
OMG I REMEMBER ALL OF THOSE
@@fashionqueenstar Greatest classics of all time
A dead Roblox game I remember playing all the time back in the day was called “Space Knights”, it recently got a reboot, which went nowhere unfortunately. It gets no players, besides maybe me, if you ever see someone named “Jackson1222”, that’s me
Gods, being on roblox since 2010 this video brought back a huge bit of nostalgia for all the old and now lost games I used to play as a kid. So many games I had vivid memories of like this crappy pokemon rpg or this spongebob battle game that had genuine effort put in them are just completely lost and unarchived. Reminds me of when the staff thought it would be a good idea to bring back the idea of the crafting system back in like 2016 and failed miserably when they realized it would brick the catalog.
Why am I mentioning this random tidbit? Because most of these old games I played as a kid are becoming lost to time just like obscure info like that.
Wonder why they don't care about older games now, most are bloody hidden from search results.
Watching this vid gave me the urge to dump some random old screen recordings from 2012 I've had lying around after realizing how many old games don't have any surviving footage
ToastedCherries is one of those rare TH-cam gems. Small but loyal fanbase, doesn’t go over the top, but puts in obvious effort, always makes good content, and is just chill in general. I guess I’m just tryna say I love your channel man. Keep it up!
i'm surprised that Undead Nation or Protect Telamon from Zombies haven't been mentioned in this series yet, they're both games that were once pretty popular but have since become abandoned
you forgot catalog heaven, it was a game about using almost any roblox gear and fighting people with it, it died for an unknown reason.
It died because of hackers holding the game hostage - they were crashing the game, and the only way to get around the crashing was buying a t-shirt from them and wearing it.
But even then, that was just a scam. Sad thing is that some people actually bought it and was expecting to be able to play again.
@@Ursaross the group was catalog hell
yes and no; shirt did work for a time since the bot the group used detected those wearing the shirt and would leave w/o crashing, and it wouldn't revisit a server again so long as it detected a shirt once, letting folk play the game (there was even proof vids)
but then eventually changed the system to just spawn kill everyone instead of crashing, on top of rejoining servers, making the experience arguably worse
catalog hell played a part in killing the game, but the purpose was to get seranok to notice and update the game, and it worked; a lot of the worst glitches were patched with the *help* of the lead scripter of catalog hell
12:22 Fun fact about Zeek, he was featured in Pokemon Brick Bronze as the 7th gym's gym leader, his gym recreates his iconic 2d monotone style and he specializes in Dark type, which Pokemon has never done until Sword and Sheild.
Fried cherries
U made me feel sick ☹️
I remember playing a lot of these games, especially paintball and kingdom life, I play the newer kingdom life games sometimes...
1:45 "And the secret 5th option for when the developer gets into controversy!"
Isn't that just the latter half of reason 2, but with extra steps?
Yup but it happens enough to be its whole own ending 😭
What about dodgeball by alexnewp3*o?
What does he know
BROOO THAT CTF GAME YOU UNLOCKED SOME OF MY CORE MEMORIES
dude the way my jaw dropped when i saw the creator of a lucid dream made lethal company
used to play town and city of robloxia all the time, even remember when city of robloxia was brand new and everyone was trying it out
Toasted cherries is still underrated
Thank you for showing us this, toastedcherries, this is something really interesting!
Hey I made the thumbnail!
The yelzuuF is lying
Hey you did it!
Sincerely, person on custom minigames who killed you for not making this video
SUE ROBLOX SPREAD THE WORD
Ahh, I remember the days of the Original Kingdom Life II. A lot of it generally hinged on sweaty PVP, but there was actual roleplay reasons as to why a lot of it hinged on sweaty PVP.
turkey
God this video took me down memory lane, thanks for the vid man! I wish we could go back to this...
I liked my own comment
Congrats, what you want a cookie or summin
Congrats! Here is 1m dollars 😂
You really bold bro
The tomodachi life music in the background is very nice touch
I used to play undertale fangames on roblox, one had someone be the monster and had to kill all the players as different undertale characters, another was a roleplay game but it broke, and finally a undertale game where you had to fight bosses but it slowly died out.
This was the best 40 minutes of my life keep up the good work man
