Decide whether to join or wait
| If you want… | What to consider |
|---|---|
| The current call-center gameplay while development continues | The developer lists the core loop but warns about unfinished behavior and changing balance |
| A more settled progression and co-op experience | Wait for development updates before deciding |
| To play before the retail purchase opens | Check playtest eligibility, not a paid AI upgrade |
| A fixed launch day | Use the dedicated release-date page |
The developer describes a playable core with solo and online co-op modes, AI conversations, remote computer access, daily targets and boss reviews. The planned improvements focus on scenario variety, progression, office interactions and co-op, with priorities subject to feedback.
Prepare for the public Steam release
- Open the correct store entry and follow its availability.
- Compare your computer with the official minimum specifications.
- Prepare a microphone and broadband connection for the conversational gameplay.
- When the purchase opens, check the build description and the price displayed for your region before buying.
Playtest access should not be treated as ownership of the retail game. Likewise, a public lobby being listed as a feature does not make the unreleased retail build accessible.
Where feedback goes
The developer names Steam discussions and the official Discord as feedback routes. Report the build, what happened, and the result you expected; that is more useful than assuming a behavior from an older recording must remain unchanged.

Early Access is planned for October 2026. A specific public day is not confirmed at the October 8, 2026 source check. Follow the official Steam announcements.
How do I get early access?

How much will Scam With Your Friends cost?
Retail pricing is unconfirmed. The optional paid playtest AI service does not unlock the game.
