Dark Chess is an indie strategy game released in early 2023, developed by Tall Troll Games. As an indie digital board game variant with a niche appeal and limited exposure, it is likely to have a small but steady community of active daily players, especially since it's over a year past launch and not produced by a major publisher.

Artifact, developed and published by Valve, launched in 2018 as a digital collectible card game. Despite Valve's reputation, the game quickly lost players due to its controversial monetization and gameplay reception, and official updates largely ceased. The player base is now extremely low, with only a handful of daily matches played as of recent years.
