Steam Playtest status

Scam With Your Friends Playtest

The separate Steam Playtest is disabled; Early Access is available on Steam.

Quick answer

The Scam With Your Friends Playtest is no longer active. SteamDB marks the separate testing app as disabled and records an invitation end on October 14, 2026. The main game launched in Steam Early Access on October 15, 2026.

Last verified: October 16, 2026.

Is the Playtest Still Available?

No. SteamDB's current Playtest metadata marks the separate Playtest app as disabled. The test was a pre-release build and is not the same app as the Early Access game now sold through Steam.

Can You Request Playtest Access?

There is no current request-access path for the disabled Playtest. This guide cannot provide keys, restore testing access or issue friend invitations.

What Did the Friend Invite Count Mean?

SteamDB records a historical Playtest friend invite count of three. That value described invitations for the testing app; the live Early Access lobby range is separately confirmed as 1–8 players in official Hotfix 2 notes.

Playtest vs Early Access

The Playtest was a separate test version used before release. Early Access is the live, purchasable version of the game and may continue to receive fixes, content changes and balance updates before version 1.0.

Where to Play Now

Use the official Scam With Your Friends Steam store page for the current Windows PC version. You do not need a Playtest invitation to buy and install the Early Access release.
