Source-derived summary

Adopt Me! (stylized in all caps) is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed and published by Uplift Games (formerly known as DreamCraft) on the online game platform Roblox. It was released on July 13, 2017 for Windows, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5. The original focus of the game was a family role-play, wherein players either acted as a parent adopting a child, or a child getting adopted. As the game developed, its focus shifted to adopting and caring for virtual pets, which could also be traded with other players. Uplift Games employs roughly 40 people and earns US$60 million from the game a year, often from microtransactions. Adopt Me! had averaged over 100,000 concurrent players in September 2022. As of November 2025, Adopt Me! had surpassed over 40.8 billion visits.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Adopt Me!”, the useful work is to connect “roblox experience (2017)” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 23, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q98078995. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2017, 2022 and 2025.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
