How these estimates are made

A Tale in the Desert

We estimate that about 29 people play A Tale in the Desert on a typical day (most likely between 7 and 86), based on data from Nov 11, 2026. Around 13,000 accounts (between 4,500 and 30,000) have played it at some point. A Tale in the Desert 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.

Geneforge 2

We estimate that about 96 people play Geneforge 2 on a typical day (most likely between 22 and 290), based on data from Nov 11, 2026. Around 43,000 accounts (between 15,000 and 100,000) have played it at some point. Geneforge 2 is on Steam, but Steam covers only part of its players, so the estimate also draws on the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.
