Jetpack Joyride

Jetpack Joyride is a 2011 side-scrolling endless runner/action video game created by Chief Creative Officer Luke Muscat at Halfbrick Studios. Originally released for iOS devices on the App Store on September 1, 2011, the game has since been ported to many other systems. The game features the same protagonist as Monster Dash, Barry Steakfries, who the player controls as he steals a jet pack from a top-secret laboratory. The game has been met with very favorable reviews, and has won numerous awards.

Player estimates

Nobody publishes how many people play Jetpack Joyride, so these figures are modelled from the public counts on Google Play, App Store, Reddit, 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.

Range 21K29M

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 Jetpack Joyride?

We estimate that about 40,000,000 people have played Jetpack Joyride — plausibly between 2.1M and 190M. Around 2,000,000 of them play on a given day, in a range of 21K and 29M. Both figures are modelled from public counts on Google Play, App Store, Reddit and Twitch rather than published by the developer, so read them as a scale rather than as a headcount.

Is Jetpack Joyride still active?

Yes. Jetpack Joyride 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 Jetpack Joyride 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 2 readings taken since August 8, 2026.
