How these estimates are made
Castaways
Castaways is estimated to have 1 – 570 players a day. Around 1k – 120k 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.
Palia
Palia is estimated to have 21k – 75k players a day. Around 710k – 2m 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.
