How these estimates are made

FreeSO

FreeSO is estimated to have 7 – 3k players a day. Around 5k – 460k 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.

Highrise

Highrise is estimated to have 510 – 2k players a day. Around 13k – 33k 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.
