Star Stable

Achaea, Dreams of Divine Lands is a classic text-based MUD (Multi-User Dungeon) released in 1997. While it has a long-running, dedicated community and is supported by Iron Realms Entertainment, the active daily player base for such niche, text-based MMOs is generally small—typically in the low hundreds. It maintains a persistent world and large-scale multiplayer features, qualifying it as an MMO.

Star Stable is a long-running MMO aimed at children and horse enthusiasts. Released in 2012, it remains moderately popular among its niche audience, largely due to a steady stream of updates and a loyal, active community. As an MMO with persistent servers, hundreds of thousands of active monthly users have been reported in previous years, but daily active users are considerably lower, likely in the 30,000–40,000 range today. It benefits from being one of the very few online horse games targeting younger players.
