Guinness World Records Enters Roblox: How To Earn An Official Record In-Game
Guinness World Records has jumped into Roblox with the official 1% Win Obby, where topping the leaderboard can land you a real world record. And it’s just the beginning—two more record-making experiences are on the way.
Guinness World Records just moved into Roblox with an official experience called '1% Win Obby.' The hook is simple and kind of wild: if you take the top spot on the in-game leaderboard, that counts as a real Guinness World Record. They are also teeing up two more Roblox experiences where you can do the same thing, so yes, they are basically daring the platform to come break records.
Need-to-know
- What it is: '1% Win Obby' is the first of three official Guinness Roblox experiences.
- How records work: each game has a leaderboard tracking the top 10; finish at No. 1 and you set a Guinness World Record.
- Proof you did it: when a new record is set, a virtual Guinness adjudicator pops up in-game and delivers a digital certificate.
- When you can play: the Guinness Roblox experiences are live for a limited window, November 4, 2025 through November 17, 2025.
- What an 'obby' is: Roblox slang for obstacle course, which is what all three experiences are expected to be.
- Private servers: if you want one for this obby, it costs 10 Robux.
So what is '1% Win Obby' exactly?
Picture a long glass bridge split into two parallel paths. Each step is a glass tile: some hold your weight, some shatter. You inch forward by figuring out which tiles are safe. Pick wrong, drop into the void, and you restart from the beginning. It is simple, tense, and ruthlessly trial-and-error.
How to actually play (and, maybe, win)
The straightforward way: keep testing tiles, memorize the safe path, and hope you can string together a clean run faster and cleaner than everyone else during the two-week window.
The not-so-straightforward way (players swear by this): create a second Roblox account, friend your main, and spin up a Private Server for 10 Robux. Use the dummy account to scout the correct tiles, then walk your main through the safe route without eating all the deaths. Will Guinness be thrilled if you cheese it? Unclear. But it is a common tactic in obbies and the game allows it.
Either way, finishing with fewer attempts and better time is the whole game here, because your goal is to top that leaderboard. Hit No. 1, and the virtual adjudicator shows up to certify your record on the spot.
What is coming next
This is only the first of three official Guinness Roblox experiences. The next two are also expected to be obby-style challenges, which tracks — obstacle courses are easy to understand, brutal to master, and perfect for leaderboard wars.
The clock is already ticking: you have from November 4 to November 17, 2025 to take your shot. If you have been waiting for a reason to retire your Halloween avatar and try-hard a leaderboard, this is it.
