How these estimates are made

Palia

We estimate that about 20,000 people play Palia on a typical day (most likely between 14,000 and 28,000), based on data from Nov 12, 2026. Around 1,100,000 accounts (between 900,000 and 1,500,000) 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.

Scum

We estimate that about 47,000 people play Scum on a typical day (most likely between 34,000 and 65,000), based on data from Nov 12, 2026.
