Lua is a versatile, interpreted programming language with a simple grammar. Because Lua can easily be embedded into applications, it is frequently used in games, such as World of Warcraft, Far Cry and Baldur's Gate.

Lua is used in Roblox by users to add in customized content, like cars that drive, new weapons, etc.

See the official Lua website and the Wikipedia article for more information.
