Odin: Valhalla Rising

AwakeMUD is a recent MUD (Multi-User Dungeon) with a fantasy and sci-fi setting, released at the end of 2021. MUDs generally have small niche audiences, given that this is not a modern graphical MMO and has no major publisher or developer name attached. Interest in MUDs is low compared to mainstream online RPGs, so daily active players are likely to be quite limited—typically in the tens or low hundreds even soon after launch. Given its continued operation and niche interest, estimating around 50 daily players is reasonable.

Odin: Valhalla Rising is a mobile and PC MMORPG developed by Lionheart Studio and published by Kakao Games. It launched in 2021 and initially attracted significant attention in Korea and parts of Asia. As an MMORPG with cross-platform play, it benefits from the strong MMO market in those regions, but daily active players are likely lower outside of Asia. Given the game's age and the typical lifecycle for mobile MMORPGs, combined with Kakao's publishing power, a daily player count in the 60,000–70,000 range is plausible, with retention primarily in Korea and Taiwan.
