The Las Vegas Valley

The Las Vegas Valley is a work-in-progress Roblox game created by bestestplayerever4. It is an on-going miniature recreation planned to have many locations in the Las Vegas Valley including the Strip, Downtown Las Vegas, Boulder Highway, and other places, along with some off-site locations like Primm and Jean. It was originally meant to be a game created just for bestestplayerever4 to prove to his friends and followers that he still plays Roblox, but it has slowly turned into a project that is updated almost everyday.

So far, the recreation has gone up to the center area of the Strip.

History
The Las Vegas Valley officially started somewhere in late October of 2019, but wasn't published until November 11 of the same year. Bestestplayerever4, the creator of the game, was concerned with his channel, Velvet the Lion's earliest subscribers, thinking that they thought that he no longer played Roblox after the channel stopped creating game-related videos in 2018. As a way to prove that he wasn't dead on the platform, he officially started progress on a mini-Las Vegas recreation. At the time, the game was known as "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas!", but was eventually renamed to "The Las Vegas Valley". The first building to be recreated was the Liquor Outlet on Las Vegas Boulevard (It was renamed to the "Drinks Outlet" due to Roblox's filters). Velvet's main inspiration for the game's setting was from "Las Vegas Roblox", by danielbfrias. Despite being quite poor in quality (Including heavy amounts of free models and stuff taken from other Vegas developers, loud sped-up music from Disney's California Screamin' plaguing the game, and bad road layouts), he found that it he had some potential in creating a similar version to it, but with more detail and properties. By March 29, 2020, the game had gotten up to a total of 349 visits.

In March of 2020, a PSA girl was added, informing the player about the recent closures and lockdown that have occured in Nevada due to coronavirus concers, and also tells the player to stay safe. It was later removed.

The game closed due to the Versace incident (Note: this has since be resolved, and Versace is now a Blox Vegas developer) and later reopened on May 26 with some updated buildings, including an upgraded Paris, Bellagio, Gold Coast, and Palms.

The game hit 1,000 visits by August of 2020, and as of October 13, 2020, the game has 1,895 visits.

Game Details
The player starts out on the South Strip Festival Grounds (The former home of the infamous Route 91 Harvest Festival). Behind the spawn, a man wearing a tuxedo gives players different details of the game, such as how to go to places fast, what has been updated, etc... A blue Chevrolet Camero is located in front of the spawn and can be driven around the game.

A day/night cycle is implemented in to the game, and whenever it becomes night, some of the properties in the game, along with various neon signs, light up just like the ones in real life. Sometimes whenever the game is updated, new weather, especially rain is added, giving the player a different atmosphere.

Trivia

 * The Las Vegas Valley is the first Las Vegas-based game on Roblox to include Casino Royale, Town Square, and OYO.
 * The Las Vegas Valley will be the first and (possibly) the only game on the Hospitality Research Group to include the Wynn, Encore, and Wynn Golf Course.
 * There has since been plans on adding a "time travel" mechanic in the game, where players are able to visit the Las Vegas Valley in different decades, similar to Gabfer's Vintage Las Vegas Saga. Plans also include the possible revival of Velvet's Vegas 80s, a game he previously worked on.
 * Future updates will also include a teleportation mechanic where people are able to teleport to various parts of the valley using GUIs.
 * There is a possibility that Laughlin and Pahrump will be added into the game at one point, however, it is unclear if it will truly be added in or not.
 * A backup of the Las Vegas Valley currently exists within bestestplayerever4's profile just in case something bad happens to the game.
