How these estimates are made

Pokémon Go

Pokémon Go is estimated to have 530 – 250k players a day. Around 100k – 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.

Rules of Survival

Rules of Survival is estimated to have 3 – 9 players a day. Around 110k – 280k 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.
