Do this using the following commands, one at a time, in the Linux terminal. First, we need to move to the newly created Grapejuice folder and then, execute the install script. The only thing left to do now is to install Grapejuice. It should only take a few seconds to complete this process.

Copy the files to your Chromebook with the following terminal command. This is essentially pulling down all the code needed to build and install Grapejuice. Now we will “clone” the repository for Grapejuice. sudo apt install -y wine git python3-pip pkg-config libcairo2-dev libdbus-1-dev gtk-update-icon-cache desktop-file-utils xdg-utils libgirepository1.0-dev gir1.2-gtk-3.0 Paste the following command into the terminal using right-click on your mouse or touchpad and hit enter. Once you’ve started installing these packages, feel free to go grab a cup of coffee or some taquitos. This step can be done with the commands below all at once but it will take a few minutes. Next, it’s time to install Wine and all the necessary libraries and utilities needed to run Roblox Studio. Thankfully, there are those who love to tinker and one such person has gone and made a way to run Roblox Studio on Linux using the Wine compatibility layer. However, building new games for the platform requires Roblox Studio and that program is technically only available for Windows and macOS.

Thanks to the Google Play Store, millions of Chromebook users can play Roblox anytime, anywhere. Unlike Minecraft which allows you to build new worlds inside the game itself, Roblox has a dedicated program for designing new games. Roblox has also found its way into the education system in a fashion similar to Minecraft thanks to its ability to leverage endless customizations. Like Minecraft, Roblox is an insanely popular game that allows users to create their own games and worlds for others to enjoy. School is or will soon be underway for millions of students and I’m sure that countless parents and teachers have already fielded eager inquiries about playing Roblox.
