The Broken Script Getting Started on Roblox

The Broken Script on Roblox is a fan recreation of a Minecraft ARG horror mod. The live experience is listed as A Broken Promise at place 88131666518447. Creator group: sponge i think. It launched 25 February 2025, uses R6, holds 20 players, and has crossed 7.9 million visits. This page is the first-hour guide so you do not join a stolen copy, enable a script, or type Integrity into a public chat.

1. Join the correct experience

Use the official listing: A Broken Promise on Roblox. Other places reuse the name, add /tbs_config, and mix unrelated models. If the description still says unofficial recreation, loud horror, private servers recommended, TAB / Z / Shift, you are close. If it asks you to download a Windows .exe, you are on a malware page — leave.

The Minecraft Java mod is a different product with Modrinth/CurseForge installs, Geckolib, and Fzzy Config. This wiki does not walk you through that install. You are here to play the Roblox sandbox.

2. Make it private

The game page repeats it: private servers are highly recommended. Public servers attract griefers, build GUI trolls, and people who paste every chat trigger at once. Full reasons and workarounds (VIP may be limited) are on private servers. If you cannot afford VIP, play with a small friend group at off-hours and be ready to hop.

3. Learn three keys before you mine

• TAB — Settings, including the VHS overlay that used to be /removevhs.
• Z — Zoom. Inspect silhouettes without sprinting into r2.
• Shift — Sprint. Stamina for leaving, not for rushing Circuit.

Mobile: a TAB button sits near the Roblox menu. Details and extra copy-specific keys (R rotate, C coordinates on some forks) live on controls. Run the settings checklist once.

4. Understand what the first hour is

This is a slow horror sandbox. You will place blocks, hear something, see a join message, and doubt your tab list. That is the loop. You will not get a quest log. You will not redeem promo codes because there are none. You might get a badge: Monster Hunter, Here we are., 0_0_0, READ THE SIGNALS, the hallway badge, TREE_OF_LIFE — tracker on badges.

Do this on hour one:

1. Disable or lower VHS if you cannot see trees.
2. Build a tiny shelter with two exits. Not a skybase. Some entities punish height later.
3. Do not break unusual blocks until you read structures. Hello-blocks are traps.
4. Do not chat-test Null yet. If you must, one Hello, then wait — how to find Null.
5. If a silhouette appears, Z-zoom, then check entity tiers. Looking is sometimes the fail condition.

5. Rules that get people banned

The description bans cheating and exploiting. Thirty days to permanent. Do not open an executor to “just see Null.” If you are researching those tools, read script safety on an alt in your head, not on your main. Horror plus ESP is a different genre.

6. What to read next

• Survive random pressure: how to survive.
• Rank names: tier list hub.
• Fight only when you mean it: how to beat Integrity.
• After the rename: latest updates.

If the world already feels like it hates you, you joined the right game. Stay slow.

Inventory and audio on hour one

You do not need a starter weapon pack. You need to hear the world. Keep music low enough that a heartbeat or a join ding still cuts through. If a friend is talking over Discord, ask them to pause when the tab list changes. The ARG is designed around audio tells; the Roblox recreation copied that even when the mesh quality differs.

If you die to a vanilla fall or starve, that is still the sandbox underneath the horror. Rebuild boring. Do not celebrate a first death with a chat phrase from the trigger table. Save Hello for a living session. Then open the survival guide and treat the next hour as practice in leaving.
