    Minetest is just a minecraft clone, and much like minecraft, it's not like roblox. Roblox can be like minecraft, but minecraft can't be like roblox. It's as simple as that.

    Uses the same programming language kinda (Lua) and with all the new updates on Roblox (r15 avatar, people importing meshes and cars) it really is the same especially for roleplay purposes.

    While Garry's Mod allows for extensive modding and creative physics sandbox play, it is not a game development platform like Roblox is. Roblox itself is not a game which strongly separates it from Garry's Mod.

    Programming is in the same language, players can develop games and share them with others through the platform.

    It's not as complex as Roblox, which means faster map creation. Therefore, there's always more to play!

    Roblox is a game development engine while LEGO worlds is a purely LEGO sandbox restricted to LEGO parts only. Roblox allows the user to freely model anything they wish (within constraints of the game engine) and allows for programming of games. Roblox games can also be shared on the Roblox website.

    nanos world is more like Garry's Mod. It is still a sandbox game though.
