Dragon City

ArcheAge

Dragon City is a long-running free-to-play mobile and browser simulation and strategy game released by Social Point in 2012. While its peak has long passed, it remains popular with a steady, casual audience, largely on mobile platforms due to its social features, regular content updates, and monetization model. Mobile simulation games with widespread global reach and social mechanics generally retain a healthy active user base years after release, though much lower than at their height.

ArcheAge is a well-known sandbox MMORPG launched in 2013. While it initially drew strong interest due to its open world and sandbox systems, its player base has shrunk over the years, in part due to controversial monetization decisions and competition. Recent trends and community figures suggest the game retains a loyal but relatively small population, with most activity centered in a few regions. It is clearly an MMO based on its persistent world and large-scale multiplayer interaction.
