How these estimates are made
Ice World
Ice World is estimated to have 10 – 35 players a day. Around 34k – 88k accounts have played it in total.

Rust
Rust is estimated to have 320k – 1m players a day. Around 13m – 34m 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.
