Roblox Stand Upright is a JoJo game (games that are inspired by the popular manga series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, by Hirohiko Araki) created by Aenoir and it was launched around 2019. Stand upright consists of several stands where users can trade, fight, and much more.

It was a great experience and was a lot similar to other Jojo-inspired games namely, A Bizarre Day and A Universal Time. The reason why the game shines more than the rest is that Stand Upright has smooth and great graphic designs.
