Pony Town

Million on Mars: Space to Venture is a niche sandbox/strategy game with an open-world, simulation, and sci-fi focus, launched in 2021 by a small publisher/developer team. As a relatively new indie title with an active website and social presence but limited mainstream coverage, it likely has a small but dedicated community. Niche sandbox/strategy games without major publisher support tend to average in the low thousands for daily active players after a few years.

Pony Town is a social sandbox game, launched in 2016, focused on creative interaction and customization rather than traditional progression. It has a dedicated but niche community, mostly sustained via word of mouth and social platforms. Its web- and mobile-based accessibility helps retention, but it remains a relatively small game by mainstream standards, with an estimated daily active user base of about 5,000.
