Best Story Games on Roblox (2026) – Scary & Emotional
The best Roblox Story Games to play in 2026. From horror thrillers to emotional narratives like Break In, Camping, and new hidden gems.
Roblox isn’t just about tycoons and simulators. Some of the best experiences are Story Games—narrative-driven adventures where your choices matter. Here are the top picks for 2026.
1. Break In 2 (Story)
Genre: Horror / Survival Players: 1-12 Difficulty: Hard The sequel to the legendary “Break In”. You and a group of survivors must defend a house against a gang of villains. Features multiple endings, boss fights, and distinct roles (Healer, Fighter, etc.).
2. Camping (Series)
Genre: Horror / Thriller Players: 1-12 Difficulty: Medium The game that started the “Camping” genre. What starts as a fun trip to the woods turns into a nightmare with monsters, toxic rain, and a mysterious killer. Classic, but still gold.
3. The Mimic
Genre: J-Horror / Folklore Players: 1-4 Difficulty: Very Hard Based on Japanese urban legends, this game offers 4 distinct books (chapters). It’s terrifying, visually stunning, and has a deep lore. Not for the faint of heart.
4. Airplane 4
Genre: Comedy / disaster Players: 1-30 Difficulty: Easy A more lighthearted take on the genre. Survive a chaotic flight where everything goes wrong—snakes on the plane, aliens, and bad food. Great for playing with a large group of friends.
5. Residence Massacre
Genre: Home Invasion Players: 1-4 Difficulty: Extreme Technically a horror game, but the story is intense. You must survive the night until 6 AM while a creature tries to break into your house. Requires teamwork and resource management.
[!TIP] Most story games are better with friends! If you play solo, try to join a full server so you have teammates to revive you.
