Block Story

Avalon, launched in 1989, is one of the earliest online multiplayer role-playing games (MUDs). While it has historic importance, the player base has dwindled with the rise of modern MMOs and graphical RPGs. It maintains a small but dedicated community, likely fewer than 100 daily active players due to its age and niche audience.

Block Story is an indie sandbox RPG released in 2015, somewhat inspired by Minecraft but with RPG and adventure elements. Its initial popularity has significantly declined over the years due to its age, lack of major developer presence, and limited mainstream attention. As an older indie title with mainly single-player or small-scale multiplayer features, it now likely retains a very small, dedicated player base across platforms.
