How these estimates are made
Realm of the Mad God
Realm of the Mad God is estimated to have 4k – 15k players a day. Around 750k – 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.
The Tau Experiment
The Tau Experiment is estimated to have 0 – 55 players a day. Around 120 – 16k 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.
