How these estimates are made
AQ First Contact
AQ First Contact is estimated to have 1 – 550 players a day. Around 1k – 100k accounts have played it in total. No Steam data is published for this game, so the range is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. It is a rough band rather than a measurement.
Starbase
Starbase is estimated to have 18 – 62 players a day. Around 140k – 370k accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
