Sober and Bloxstrap together enhance the Roblox experience on Linux, where native support is absent, by working as complementary tools to handle compatibility, stability, and user control. Sober serves as a core compatibility layer, making it possible to run Roblox on Linux via Wine or Proton by managing Roblox's dependencies, configurations, and compatibility tweaks necessary for smooth operation. Bloxstrap, on the other hand, builds on this by adding advanced customization options and features specifically for Roblox users. It allows for version control, which lets users avoid problematic updates by rolling back to previous versions; performance optimization, by enabling specific tweaks to minimize lag; and launcher improvements that streamline launching Roblox and managing its shortcuts on Linux. Bloxstrap also brings additional patch support to improve performance and stability, tailoring the Roblox experience to feel more seamless on Linux. Together, Sober and Bloxstrap provide Linux users with a level of control and optimization that rivals the native Windows experience, making Roblox playable and enjoyable on Linux systems.

Sober is an experimental project and is not supported by Roblox and may be discontinued at any time. After Hyperion released, Roblox support for Linux was cut off, and Wine was blocked. Roblox has provided binaries with the x86-64 architecture for Android devices. This lead to the development of Sober, and made a native unofficial port possible, surpassing the performance of native Windows.
