How many people are playing Scrap Mechanic right now?

Sample too small: no sampled review with a playtime on file, 30 needed before the figures are written. The reviews poller samples each game’s reviews in turn; the funnel job reads them daily.

Global unlock shares from Steam’s own achievement percentages, read on 7 Sep 2026, ordered most common first. The finish rules (beat the game, completed the story, final boss, credits, epilogue and their variants) matched no name or description, so the funnel has no finish step rather than a guessed one. Shares are of players who have the game on their account, as Steam counts them. How this is computed. Data by SteamPeaks.com.

Spikes are measured once the verdict opens

The job measures spikes and their lift only with 7 days of both series; the first run that can is on 10 Sep 2026. The chart above already shows every sample on file.

Viewers are Twitch’s counts for the game’s category, sampled by SteamPeaks every 10 minutes; players are SteamPeaks’ own counts, averaged onto the same bins. The correlation is the strongest over lags from six hours before to six hours after; a lift compares the six hours after a spike with the same six hours a week earlier and is an estimate, shown beside its baseline. Correlation is not causation: the figures say how closely the two series move together, not that one caused the other. Verdict from the daily job, run 7 Sep 2026, 15:26 UTC, over 1 day of both series. How this is computed. Data by SteamPeaks.com.

Best Time to Play

When Scrap Mechanic is busiest

How this is computedHourly sample 46 minutes ago

Needs four weeks of hourly samples, 2 on file (77 hourly rows since 5 Sep 2026, 08:00 UTC). The weekly activity job writes the profile once 4 distinct weeks fall inside its 8-week window; the fourth week of samples begins on 21 Sep 2026, so the heatmap can appear with the job’s first run after that.

How games like Scrap Mechanic hold their players

Every game How this is computedCurves computed 3 days ago

Scrap Mechanic’s monthly averages begin in Jan 2016, more than two months after its 24 Jul 2026 release, so its series is not a launch curve and the job leaves it off rather than measure from the wrong start. The cohort’s own curve is shown.

Share of the launch level by month since launch · games · 13,558 games at launch

Middle half of gamesMedian gamesHalf of launch

The band is the 25th to 75th percentile share of the launch level among games at each month since launch, with their median as the line; a game joins a curve after 6 months of averages. Recomputed weekly, last on 5 Sep 2026. How this is computed. Data by SteamPeaks.com.
