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.
Estimated Daily Players
We estimate that The Lord of the Rings Online has currently around 20k players daily.
The Lord of the Rings Online is a classic MMORPG released in 2007. Despite its age, it maintains a loyal niche player base due to the enduring popularity of the Lord of the Rings IP and regular updates from Standing Stone Games. However, its age and niche status mean the daily active player base has declined considerably from its peak, currently estimated around 20,000 daily active players.
