- Players

3008 - 100 Players is an official variant of the original 3008 by solo developer uglyburger0, featuring a dramatically expanded server capacity of 100 players versus the standard 16-player cap. The same SCP-3008-inspired survival horror premise applies - players are trapped inside an infinite IKEA-style furniture store, must build bases from furniture, and survive nightly attacks from hostile Employee entities - but the 100-player format fundamentally transforms the social dynamics and base-building meta. With 107 million visits, it has established a distinct audience from the main game.

The core gameplay loop mirrors the original: each Day phase allows free scavenging and base construction while Employees are passive, and each Night phase forces everyone into secured positions as Employees become hostile. Three vital bars - Health, Hunger, and Energy - must be maintained throughout. The 100-player format changes the experience in meaningful ways:

• 🏠 Mega bases - 100 available builders enable collaborative construction at a scale impossible in standard 16-player servers
• ⚔️ Scavenging competition - food and materials are claimed much faster in a populated 100-player store
• 🗺️ Faction dynamics - large player counts enable informal group cooperation across a shared server
• 🏆 Griefing risk - more players means higher probability of encountering players who dismantle others' bases
• 🎭 Free to play - no passes, no badges, no paid advantages; entirely accessible to all players equally

The 100-player variant strips away the main game's progression markers - no Death Waypoint pass, no Personal Watch pass, no achievement badges. It is a raw, pass-free version of 3008 designed purely for the large-scale experience. For players who find standard servers too quiet or cooperative, the 100-player format delivers a chaotic, high-density alternative where trust between strangers is rarer and large-scale faction play is more common.

3008 - 100 Players is best treated as a companion experience to the main 3008 rather than a replacement. Players who want progression markers, badges, and a more intimate server experience are better served by the base game.
