How these estimates are made

Pokémon Go

Pokémon Go is estimated to have 500 – 230k players a day. Around 98k – 10m 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.

Rec Room

Rec Room is estimated to have 210 – 750 players a day. Around 1m – 3m 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.
