Scum

Epic Snails is a niche multiplayer action/strategy game released in 2017 by RocketSnail Games, known for Club Penguin's creator. The game never achieved major popularity and has seen a noticeable decline in playerbase over time, especially as it's over 6 years old and lacks recent updates or social media activity. Current daily players are likely quite low—mostly a small dedicated community.

Scum is a multiplayer open-world survival game developed by Gamepires and originally entered Early Access in 2018. While it is not a full MMO, it supports servers with dozens of players (up to 64 per server). The game maintains a niche but dedicated following and is frequently updated; however, it has never reached large mainstream status. Based on long-term trends of similar survival games, its daily active player base is estimated to be in the low thousands, and this estimate would hold unless a major relaunch or expansion revitalized the player base.
