EnglishWhat the Rotrends Leaderboards Show
Updated
Rotrends' leaderboards rank Roblox games by three separate metrics: Top by Earning, Top by Players, and Top by Session Time. Each board answers a different question, so the same game can appear high on one and be absent from another. Use them to identify top performers in a specific dimension rather than as a single overall ranking.
The Three Leaderboard Categories
Top by Earning
This board ranks games by revenue. On the page, the entries appear with a rank number but no revenue figure, so the board tells you who is monetizing well and in what order, not how much they make.
Examples listed: Steal An Egg (#1), Murder Mystery 2 (#2), [🎃] Adopt Me! (#5), [🎃] RIVALS (#7), Blox Fruits (#8).
Top by Players
This board ranks by player count. It is the closest thing to a popularity chart and is the most direct signal of current reach.
Examples listed: Steal An Egg (#1), Murder Mystery 2 (#2), Brookhaven 🏡RP (#4), 99 Nights in the Forest (#6), [🎃] RIVALS (#7).
Top by Session Time
This board ranks by how long players stay in a game, which points to engagement and retention rather than raw traffic. The games here are noticeably different from the other two boards — smaller titles with deep loops rather than blockbuster names.
Examples listed: [🌟NEW🌟] Bubble Gum Havoc (#8661), [🔥GOL🔥] Anime Tower Defense: Guardians of Lumina (#2062), Gem World 💎 (#3401), [2.25x Luck] Cardborn RNG (#8482), [Wave Defense🗡️] Swordburst 2 (#1986).
How to Read the Rankings
| Board | What it measures | Best used for |
|---|---|---|
| Top by Earning | Revenue order | Spotting monetization models that work |
| Top by Players | Player count order | Finding the biggest current audiences |
| Top by Session Time | Time played per session | Finding high-retention, high-engagement games |
Two details matter when interpreting the numbers:
- The rank number is the position on that board, not a player count. A game at #8661 on Session Time is ranked 8,661st by session time — it is not reporting 8,661 players.
- The same game can rank very differently across boards. Steal An Egg sits at #1 on both Earning and Players, while Bubble Gum Havoc leads Session Time despite a far lower rank position on the other boards. That gap is the useful signal: a game can be small in audience but strong in retention.
Leaderboards vs. Trending Lists
The leaderboards are cumulative rankings by a metric. The trending sections on the same page are movement-based and time-bound:
- Top Moving Games — games gaining rank today (e.g., PIGU at #1931 with a +1 movement marker).
- New and Rising — recently launched games climbing (e.g., ทายเพลงไทย 0.1 วิ! at #8357).
- New and Stable — new games holding a position (e.g., Sell Fries! [Anomaly] at #28).
- Moving in Top 100 — established games shifting within the top 100 (e.g., DIVINE HATCHERS at #97).
In short: leaderboards tell you who is on top right now; trending lists tell you who is moving. A game appearing on both a leaderboard and a trending list is worth a closer look.
Using the Leaderboards to Spot Top Performers
- Start with Top by Players to see which games currently hold the largest audiences.
- Cross-check against Top by Earning. A game high on both is converting its audience effectively; a game high on Players but low on Earning may have a monetization gap worth studying.
- Check Top by Session Time for engagement outliers. Games ranked far higher here than on Players are retaining players unusually well — often a sign of a strong core loop.
- Compare with the trending sections to see whether a top performer is still gaining ground or holding steady.
- Use the game and creator names (e.g., @ Nosniy Games, @ Nikilis) to trace patterns across a studio's portfolio.
The page also reports platform-wide context — 17,228,278 players (CCU) and a 47,296,412 peak CCU — which gives a sense of scale when judging whether a game's rank represents a large or small share of the total audience.
