Octodad: Dadliest Catch

Octodad: Dadliest Catch is a game about destruction, deception, and fatherhood. The player controls Octodad, a dapper octopus masquerading as a human, as he goes about his life. Octodad's existence is a constant struggle, as he must master mundane tasks with his unwieldy boneless tentacles while simultaneously keeping his cephalopodan nature a secret from his human family.

Frequently asked questions

How many people play Octodad: Dadliest Catch?

We estimate that about 160,000 people have played Octodad: Dadliest Catch — plausibly between 43K and 370K. Around 300 of them play on a given day, in a range of 150 and 620. Both figures are modelled from public counts on App Store, Steam, Reddit and Twitch rather than published by the developer, so read them as a scale rather than as a headcount.

Yes. Octodad: Dadliest Catch 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 Octodad: Dadliest Catch 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.
