Paunch
5 – 18 daily players
With 12 lives for two, players must fight to gain points from each kill. The containers of life are boulders freely moved by characters in the arena and used for throwing. In hand-to-hand combat the characters interact using their muscles and initiate targeted hits. When all containers are exhausted the game enters the final stage, where the victorious player takes the points earned.
Paunch is estimated to have 5 – 18 players a day. Around 220k – 570k accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
