How trying on and buying works
Table
The game connects to the Roblox Avatar Shop, so new items show up as the shop updates. Trying anything on costs nothing — payment only comes in if you decide to own the item.
| Trying on | completely free for every item in the game |
| Robux purchases | real-money currency used to buy outfits and emotes you want to keep |
| In-game currency | earnable in-game and spendable on a smaller selection of items |
| Catalog connection | new Roblox Avatar Shop releases appear in-game automatically |
Playing with friends
Tips
Friends add a social layer the game is clearly built around. Morphing into each other and reacting to each other's taste is part of the appeal.
- Click a friend's name in your friend list to morph directly into their avatar.
- Take turns morphing into each other and give feedback on the outfits.
- Try running the same emote at the same time for a coordinated look.

Common questions
FAQDoes trying on an item mean I own it?
No. The try-on only lasts while you are morphed into that avatar. Once you switch to a different player or leave the game, the look goes with it. To keep an item on your avatar permanently, you need to purchase it with Robux or in-game currency.
How often do new items appear?
The game pulls from the Roblox Avatar Shop, so new items arrive whenever the shop updates. Checking back regularly is the best way to catch fresh additions.
