How these estimates are made

Ember Sword

We estimate that about 790 people play Ember Sword on a typical day (most likely between 180 and 2,400), based on data from Nov 8, 2026. Around 140,000 accounts (between 47,000 and 320,000) have played it at some point. Ember Sword 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.

Wurm Online

We estimate that about 980 people play Wurm Online on a typical day (most likely between 700 and 1,400), based on data from Nov 8, 2026. Around 100,000 accounts (between 79,000 and 130,000) have played it at some point. It is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player count, converted to daily players, so players on other launchers or consoles may not be fully counted. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.
