Realms of Despair is a text-based MUD (Multi-User Dungeon) that launched in 1994 and is one of the oldest online fantasy RPGs still in operation. These games have a small, resilient core player base but see very low daily activity by modern standards, especially given its age and niche appeal. MUD communities are typically in the dozens after nearly 30 years online.

Estimated Daily Players

~6 thousand

We estimate that AdventureQuest Worlds has currently around 6k players daily.

AdventureQuest Worlds is a browser-based MMO released in 2008 by Artix Entertainment. The game once enjoyed significant popularity but has declined over the years due to its age, browser-based nature, and lack of major new content compared to modern MMOs. However, it still maintains a dedicated niche community, so a conservative estimate is around 6,000 daily active players.
