How these estimates are made

Merc Zone

Merc Zone is estimated to have 19 – 9k players a day. Around 10k – 940k 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.

The Cycle: Frontier

The Cycle: Frontier is estimated to have 3 – 9 players a day. Around 720k – 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.
