Nifty Island

Longvinter is a small-scale indie multiplayer survival sandbox, released by Uuvana Studios. It has received modest interest in the niche of cozy/survival games but has not broken out as a mainstream hit. As a recent release, there is a short-term peak expected, but as an indie with no major publisher, its daily active players are likely in the low thousands. It is not structured as a massive persistent world with hundreds or thousands of concurrent players, so it does not meet MMO criteria.

Nifty Island is an indie sandbox adventure game with a focus on user-generated content and social features. It has some interest in web3 and NFT communities but has not gained major mainstream traction. As a niche sandbox/platform title still in development or early access, its daily active player base is likely modest, in the hundreds range.
