Million on Mars: Space to Venture

Township

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.

Township is a popular city-building and farming simulator developed by Playrix Entertainment, released in 2013. It has remained widely played, especially on mobile platforms, due to Playrix's strong support and engagement via social media. However, as it is over ten years old, its daily active player base has likely diminished from its peak, though it still maintains significant traction in casual mobile gaming. My estimate reflects its age, the large global reach of free-to-play mobile games, and the continued activity seen in its communities.
