How these estimates are made

4Story Online

We estimate that about 620 people play 4Story Online on a typical day (most likely between 140 and 1,900), based on data from Nov 12, 2026. Around 110,000 accounts (between 37,000 and 250,000) have played it at some point. 4Story Online publishes no Steam player data, so the estimate is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.

The Sandbox

We estimate that about 2,300 people play The Sandbox on a typical day (most likely between 520 and 6,700), based on data from Nov 12, 2026. Around 340,000 accounts (between 120,000 and 780,000) have played it at some point. The Sandbox publishes no Steam player data, so the estimate is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.
