Hector: Badge of Carnage!

When a hostage crisis erupts in the centre of Clappers Wreake, only one man has the diplomatic finesse to defuse a simmering situation before it boils over into a stew of butchery and bloodshed: Detective Inspector Hector. He’s all they’ve got. Literally. All the other negotiators are dead. Hector has a choice to make: carry out the terrorist’s curiously altruistic demands, or watch as his fellow officers are picked off one by one. Hector’s still on the fence. Stagger a drunken mile through the Crime Capital of Britain in the size 9s of Detective Inspector Hector: part criminalist, part kebab-fiend, all cop. Do all the things you’ve dreamed about: hit a tramp with a crowbar, steal a young man’s trousers, kick a drug addict into a cardboard box, enter a pornshop without embarrassment, carry a designer handbag... all in the name of justice, and all in spectacular ground-breaking 2D. WHAT YOU GET: * 18 sordid, filthy, rundown locations * 23 well-developed & witty characters (+ 1 stinking drunk) * 40 Inventory items (includes Free Lubricant!) * 397 interactive objects * 2421 spoken lines of dialogue * Cinematic cutscenes * Original score * A good few hours worth of low action puzzle-solving gameplay

Estimates, not counts — nobody publishes real player numbers for mobile games, so these are modelled from public signals. How we work them out

Player estimates

Nobody publishes how many people play Hector: Badge of Carnage!, so these figures are modelled from the public counts on Steam, 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.

Estimated daily players

~12

0.0%

Range 6 – 25

No source reports a live count for this game, so this is a share of the total player base — a genre assumption rather than an observation, which is why the range is wide.

Frequently asked questions

How many people play Hector: Badge of Carnage!?

We estimate that about 9,300 people have played Hector: Badge of Carnage! — plausibly between 5.3K and 16K. Around 12 of them play on a given day, in a range of 6 and 25. Both figures are modelled from public counts on Steam and Twitch rather than published by the developer, so read them as a scale rather than as a headcount.

Is Hector: Badge of Carnage! still active?

Yes. Hector: Badge of Carnage! 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 Hector: Badge of Carnage! 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.
