Dead End Job

Dead End Job merges the frantic, addictive, highly replayable gameplay of a procedurally generated twin-stick shooter with the iconic look of a 90s cartoon. You take on the role of a worker at Ghoul-B-Gone – the #1 experts in paranormal pest control. Ghosts are captured using a tug-of-war mechanic and every ghost you catch, citizen rescued, and job completed is added to the client’s bill. Every week in-game you’re competing against the company golden boy to be named “Employee of the Week" based on the amount of money you earned the company. Have you got what it takes to be the best at putting pests to rest?

Player estimates

Nobody publishes how many people play Dead End Job, so these figures are modelled from the public counts on Steam, Discord, Twitch. Each count stands in a roughly known ratio to a population — one Play rating per ~45 players, one Steam review per ~35 owners — and the estimates below combine those readings, weighted by how much each source can be trusted to speak for the whole game. Read the range as the answer and the headline as its middle.

Frequently asked questions

How many people play Dead End Job?

We estimate that about 9,200 people have played Dead End Job — plausibly between 4.3K and 19K. Around 1,300 of them play on a given day, in a range of 410 and 3.6K. Both figures are modelled from public counts on Steam, Discord and Twitch rather than published by the developer, so read them as a scale rather than as a headcount.

Is Dead End Job still active?

Yes. Dead End Job is holding steady — it measured within a percent of where it was a week ago. We recheck every source daily, and the charts on this page show each platform's readings over time.

How are the Dead End Job player estimates worked out?

Nobody publishes player counts for mobile games, so we infer them. Each public count we can read is converted into a population using a documented ratio — roughly one Google Play rating per 45 people who played, one Steam review per 35 owners, one Discord member per 40 players — and the live counts (Steam concurrents, members online, Twitch viewers) are converted the same way into a daily figure. Those separate estimates are then averaged in proportion to how much each source can be trusted, which is why sources that disagree widen the published range instead of cancelling out. This page is built on 1 readings taken since August 9, 2026.
