How these estimates are made

MapleStory

MapleStory is estimated to have 17k – 60k players a day. Around 290k – 740k 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.

Pirate Royalty

Pirate Royalty is estimated to have 1 – 530 players a day. Around 750 – 78k 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.
