HOW IT WORKS

We match your game with playtesters who genuinely enjoy your genre. You get honest, actionable feedback β€” not generic bug reports.

Genre-Matched Testers

Every tester is matched based on the genres they actually play. Your RPG gets tested by RPG fans, not random players.

Video + Commentary

Receive a full gameplay recording with live audio commentary. Hear exactly what the tester thinks and feels as they play.

AI-Powered Transcript

Each playtest includes a summarized transcript highlighting issues, friction points, and moments of confusion or delight.

Fully Confidential

Private playtests stay private. Your unreleased game, builds, and footage are never shared publicly.

Multiplayer Support

Need a full lobby? We coordinate up to 8 playtesters to play your multiplayer game together in a single session.

24-Hour Turnaround

Once a tester claims your playtest, they have 24 hours to deliver. No waiting weeks for feedback.

WHAT DEVELOPERS ARE SAYING

Don't just take our word for it β€” hear from indie developers who've used We Playtest Games.

If you'd like a free 30-minute streamed playtest, we'll stream it and post it to YouTube. If you'd like more in-depth private playtests, our team will find the perfect person to play for a fraction of the price you'd pay anywhere else.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I know the playtest will be high quality?

All our playtesters are vetted through a trial stage to ensure they can deliver high quality, useful recordings. If you ever feel unsatisfied you can reject a playtest to find a new playtester to carry it out.

What can I expect for my playtest?

You'll receive a high quality gameplay recording with audio commentary describing exactly what the playtester felt and how they thought as they're playing your game.

Can I ask the playtester to test specific things?

Yes! You can provide a description of what you want tested when ordering a playtest, or provide them with a custom build to test only the parts you want.

I have a multiplayer game and would like multiple playtesters at once

We support multiplayer playtests with up to 8 players per session. Just select the number of players when ordering and our team will coordinate them to play together. Check our pricing calculator above to see multiplayer costs.

How do subscriptions work?

The Indie plan ($79/month or $790/year) and Studio plan ($379/month or $3,790/year) add a bundle of playtest hours to your account every billing period β€” yearly plans add the whole year's hours up front. When you order a playtest the hours are used automatically. Subscriptions give cheaper playtests than pay as you go.

Can I cancel my subscription?

Yes, any time from the Subscription page in your dashboard. You keep the plan until the end of the billing period you've paid for, you're not charged again, and every playtest hour already in your account stays yours.

What happens to unused playtest hours?

They roll over. Playtest hours never expire β€” not at the end of the month, and not if you cancel.

Can I switch plans?

Yes. Pick the new plan from your Subscription page: your current plan ends as soon as the new plan's payment succeeds and the new plan's full hours are added straight away. You keep all the hours you already had.
