Pax Historia is the first-AI powered sandbox game. Players create worlds, publish them to the community, and play to answer all of their ‘what would have happened if…?’ questions. Congrats on the launch @Eli_BullockPapa and @Ryzhang22!

What this launch shows
Pax Historia posted this from an account with 1.7M followers and reached about 61.9% of them. Accounts of that size usually reach 2.4 times their following.
This one did not get far past the people who already followed it. It ranks 358 of 611 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it sits at 1.5 times the median of 688K views.
Saves led. 2K people bookmarked it, 18.6 per 10,000 views against a directory median of 11.7. A bookmark is a plan to come back, and it tracks signups and demo requests more closely than a like does.
The rest: 111 replies, 113 quotes, 149 reposts. One bookmark for every 1.2 likes is a high ratio and usually means a product people intend to try.
The post opens with “Pax Historia is the first-AI powered sandbox game”. It carries a 1:17 video against a directory median of 65 seconds.
Videos between 30 and 90 seconds have a median of 603K views in the directory. The copy runs 38 words, about the usual length for a launch post here, where the median is 41.
There is a link in the body, which costs a post some reach and buys it a place to send people. It went out on a Friday. Launches posted on a Friday have a median of 880K views in the directory, which makes it the strongest day.
Attributing signups to a launch covers this: a save rate this high is the number to follow into the product. For the next one, read why posts from large accounts under-reach: a post seen by fewer people than follow the account was held back by the ranking model.
X analytics explained is the guide for it: what each of these numbers means, with benchmarks by account size. Every launch we track in Consumer AI is on that vertical's directory page.
