Popular Roblox content creator Forrest “KeekCraft” has commented on online rumors about the Roblox game Grow a Garden in a post on X dated June 1, 2025. The YouTuber weighed in about allegations piled against the game about being full of bots.

For those out of the loop, Grow a Garden exploded in popularity in the last few weeks, and broke the record for most players in a Roblox game. The game has come to rival AAA titles on Steam such as PUBG and Counter-Strike in terms of peak concurrent user numbers.

This weekend saw the game climb up the charts once more, with over 10 million concurrent players logging in simultaneously at one point. Fans and many in the Roblox community have praised the game for achieving such a feat. However, some have started rumors against Grow a Garden, alleging that the player stats are inaccurate.

KreekCraft took to X to address these rumors and called out people propagating this narrative. The YouTuber proclaimed that he has never seen proof of the claims that the game has bots. He wrote:

“Everyone keeps saying Grow a Garden is all bots but I’ve yet to see any actual proof.”

KreekCraft did not stop there. He challenged people to share evidence of the supposed bots in the game, claiming it would be the biggest Roblox news of the year:

“If you have evidence of there being 10 Million+ bots on Roblox please let me know. It’d be the biggest news story of the year.”

Grow a Garden peaked at 11.7 million concurrent viewers this weekend

According to stats from RoMonitorStats.com, Grow a Garden peaked at about 11.707 million concurrent players on Saturday, May 31. It has become the first Roblox game to have more than 10 million active players at the same time. Not only is that very impressive for the Roblox Platform, but the viewership numbers make it one of the most popular video games in the world.

The 11.7 million peak player number is way more than what most multiplayer AAA titles achieve. For comparison, PUBG is Steam’s #1 Most Played Game and peaked at 3.25 million players back in January of 2018.

KreekCraft, among others, celebrated Grow a Garden’s success after it crossed the 10 million active player mark. In a post on X, the YouTuber noted how only one other video game has even recorded such a high number- Fortnite. KreekCraft wrote:

“Grow a Garden has become the first Roblox game to hit 10 MILLION PLAYERS. The only other game to ever reach that number in the entire history of video games is Fortnite.”

For context, Epic Games’ Fortnite currently holds the Guinness World Record for Most Concurrently Played Videogame after it recorded 15.3 million players on December 1, 2020. Grow a Garden is currently just more than 3 million players short of that record.
