CONTEXT MATTERS
Understanding the numbers
Store statistics, player estimates, and search interest measure different kinds of activity. Compare each signal over time, and check the update dates in each section.
How ActivePlayer collects dataAre these live player counts?
Mobile player figures are estimates, updated on the schedule shown by each source. They are not a real-time count of connected players.
Are downloads the same as active players?
No. Downloads, ratings, daily activity, and monthly activity are different metrics. Store totals should not be added together to infer a unique player count.
What does regional interest show?
Search interest is a relative score from 0 to 100. It describes search attention, rather than the percentage of players in a country.
