Is Hunger broken for you? Tap what's failing
One tap, no account. Reports are how the next player finds out whether it's their connection or the servers.
Reporting needs JavaScript.
We store the category and the time. Your IP address is never stored: it's hashed with a secret and today's date only to stop one person filing fifty reports, and the hash can't be reversed or matched to you tomorrow.

Is it the servers, or the beta?
The Hunger Closed Beta (19 to 26 October) is a stress test. Good Fun Corporation calls it a larger version of its Tech Tests, run to scale servers across regions and find bottlenecks, so downtime and hotfixes during the week are expected. On 20 October the servers went offline for Hotfix #1, which fixed the "Entering Chateau" hang, matchmaking failures and several server and client crashes. After a hotfix, fully close Hunger, restart Steam and let the Hunger Playtest update before you try again.
Not getting in at all is usually access, not an outage: invites go out in batches, and Hunger Playtest only appears in your library once you have one. A real outage looks like many players reporting "Server connection" or "Matchmaking or queue" at the same time. The studio posts downtime on the Hunger Steam news page, on @GOODFUNHUNGER on X, in r/GOODFUNHUNGER and in the Hunger Discord, which is also where Steam's support link for the game points.
Hunger error codes and crashes
If Hunger won't launch or connect
- Check the reports above. A spike of "Server connection" or "Matchmaking or queue" reports from many players means it isn't your setup; waiting is the fix.
- Close Hunger, restart Steam, update. The studio asks for this after each hotfix, so you are on the same build as the servers.
- Check you're on Windows. The Steam page lists Windows only, and players on Linux report being removed by the anti-cheat after the tutorial. Steam Deck runs Linux too.
- Verify the game files. In Steam: right-click Hunger Playtest, Properties, Installed Files, Verify integrity of game files.
Questions
›Is Hunger down right now?
No problems reported. No player reports in the last 15 minutes.
›Why were the Hunger servers offline?
Good Fun Corporation took the servers down to ship Closed Beta Hotfix #1 on 20 October. The hotfix post says servers are back online and Expeditions are available again. Before playing, fully close Hunger, restart Steam and update the Hunger Playtest.
›Why am I stuck on the Entering Chateau screen?
Players could get stuck on "Entering Chateau" for 10 minutes or longer. Hotfix #1 on 20 October fixed it, so make sure the Hunger Playtest has updated.
›Why can I not find an Expedition?
Before Hotfix #1, matchmaking could fail to place players into a server, or put them in low-population servers. Both are fixed in the hotfix. Long searches after that can still be load: the studio says it is watching matchmaking as more players join.
›Why can I not play the Hunger Closed Beta?
You need Hunger Playtest in your Steam library. Invites go out in batches while the studio checks stability, and Steam emails you when you are in. The beta runs until 26 October at 09:00 GMT (TBC).
›Is there an official Hunger server status page?
We have not found one. Good Fun Corporation posts hotfixes and downtime on the Hunger Steam news page, on @GOODFUNHUNGER on X, in r/GOODFUNHUNGER and in the Hunger Discord. None of those shows live status, which is why this page counts player reports.
›Does Steam maintenance affect Hunger?
Steam runs routine maintenance on Tuesdays. Signing in, invites and playtest access through Steam can fail for a few minutes while it's running.
›How does this page decide there is an outage?
It counts different players who tapped a report button in the last 15 minutes. Three or more reads as "a few reports", twelve or more as a likely outage. Repeat taps from one person count once.
